Thanks for that...
Like the author, I push the idea of accidents to the back of my mind, but sometimes the thoughts make themselves felt.
I still remember one of my old racing buddies telling me about why he quit riding on the road--he was a shop rat, and sold a new bike to a particularly lovely young woman (instant crush). A day later she was dead, crowded between the curb and a trolly bus and run over by the back wheels...
He just stopped riding.
