Junker Bikes Recycled for PSAs

[6_bleen_7]

This summer I started seeing on my way to work old, junked bicycles, painted entirely white, at various intersections. Each one bore a sign saying, "A cyclist was struck here." Turns out it was a project by an advocacy group, GhostCycle.org, to raise awareness for drivers and cyclists alike of dangerous locations for bicycling in Seattle

Wow, didn't you ever attach playing cards to your bike when you were a kid? If you position them so that one end extends into the spokes, when you rode they would flap back and forth along the spokes and make your bike sound like a badass motorcycle.

Sorry, who's Tracey?

Surprisingly enough, I've had less of a problem with that riding to work here than in Seattle, even though the number of phone drones per capita is considerably higher. Not sure what to make of that, but I am fairly confident it is related to the smaller number of (1) SUVs and (2) yuppies in our part of Cleveland. Y'know, I'm learning to really hate yuppies....
