Ever been to Italy and see they way they drive? Everyone thinks they are an Andretti descendant. Not that drivers around here really care about bicyclists either, I got brushed by a mirror the other day.
This is really sad, but it only brings to the forefront the careless accidents out there. How many others have been hit in that area that don't make the news?

This sucks.
Its part of the sport(s), but that doesn't make it any easier.
We just lost a young New Englander in the cycling scene a couple weeks ago too. Tough spring. Keep you head up, both drivers and cyclists.
A man of many names...Jay, Gennaro, Gerry, etc.
Good luck Kentucky Kid!
It is very sad to hear. Schumacher, then him - gifted racers getting critically injured doing everyday things.
If anything, news like this only confirms my complete and utter dislike of cycling. Cycling injuries can be seriously hurtful, plus the tight nut hugging shorts and guys shaving their legs thing weirds me out.
I rode in Italy for 12 days on a motorcycle from Rome to the Alps/Dolomites and back making a big loop. I found the Italian drivers much more aware of the two-wheelers then in the US probably because of how many bikes on the roads. Just a tragic error imo.
this sux.
how the heel did that roof cave in so much? that was one hell of a hit.
pulling for you Speedy!
one reason why i did not get into road riding. bigger+ more speed from the other impacting side. MTB - you set the pace and tend to recover from rocks and trees

That just made me sick. I knew him and his family from the start of Tommy racing watching them all grow up and was very proud of what Nicky has accomplished. That is a great racing family, always willing to talk even though you can't understand them (they are hillbillies)(joke). But seriously I'm hoping for the best and I have a heavy heart for the entire family and extended racing family.

It's different... but not reassuring. My thoughts are with him and his family.

Staring at his phone, then HOPEFULLY using his anti-lock brakes. Not that it helped much...
Just because there are no tire marks doesn't mean they didn't see it last second & hit the brakes.... but it's a moot point, given the result. Just saying the "no tire marks" thing doesn't mean jack shit.

Right. I meant that it seems to indicate that the person didn't even slow down.. meaning he didn't even see him..
