I get a lot of emails for products that claim to accomplish something very similar... Maybe I can give them your buddy's name?

Bad Astronomy |VCF|wxWidgets|WTLWell there you go, you've accomplished two goals for the day, spewed across the office like a drunken monkey with diarrhea, and gotten rid of a client! Two cheers for Doug!

I found out today that a co-worker had a bike accident yesterday. He has a concussion, broken ribs and colarbone, and cuts and bruises. He's had one surgery so far. He has an active lifestyle (biking, hiking, kayaking, etc). Hopefully he heals fully.

Best wishes to your friend :rose:. I ride a fair amount, and commute to work on the bike fairly often. Traffic is a pretty scary thing at times. A guy I work with was pumping up a hill about ten years ago when a car coming in the opposite direction violated the no passing zone. The guy hit Tom doing 40 mph. Tom spent five weeks in the hospital, and has some of the most amazing scars. It took him two years before he could get back on the bike.

IN response to all of the posts below about how everyone else is to blame for bike accidents. Get real. riding bikes on the road is dangerous - there are good drivers and abd drivers, good bikers and bad bikers. Sometimes the good riders get taken out by the bad drivers, sometiomes the bad riders get taken out by the good drivers. Sometimes the riders just take themselves out. If you ride a bike TAKE CARE - there's a reason Aussies call bikers 'Temporary Citizens'. Assume that every vehicle is out to get you.

Your co-worker seems to be a regular biker not an amateur one and I hope he feels better. Bike accidents are very scary. As a Biker to work guy, I do sympathize for him. I hope all the car drivers take care in observing the bikers.

It would be nice if bikers observed the rules of the road occasionally. When you're cycling YOU ARE NOT A PEDESTRIAN! You also don't have the right to just dive out from side alleys and cross the road. Grrr.... Iain.
I have now moved to Sweden for love (awwww). If you're in Scandinavia and want an MVP on the payroll (or happy with a remote worker), or need cotract work done, give me a job! http://cv.imcsoft.co.uk/[^]

Yes, I agree. I was going to rant about that. Some guys just ride on the wrong side of the road. That is very dangerous.

That's almost as cynical as calling the idiots riding harley's without a helmet "spare parts". :-D
