so the big news that has been circulating on all of the collegiate listservs im on has been about the big bike crash in mexico that involved an intoxicated driver that fell asleep driving and plowed into a large group of bikers participating in a bike race.

The graphic photo above shows the carnage that unfolded.
This kind of crap really pisses me off as a cyclist...
It definately makes you think twice about the inherent dangers of a cross country bike trip, as with all of my experience and extra caution I could still get screwed over just because someone's not paying attention. While overexaggerated, I know the Yale Habitat ride closed due to too many people getting hurt by being hit by cars. Hopefully our group has better luck.
