You're mocking our SKILL?? LOL. Your hero rode right into the path of a fast merging car. I see there's bushes in the ditch blocking some of the driver's view.
I had no such problem riding my CCM 3 speed 3 days there.
Damn right we have skill in Edmonton. And so do our drivers, BTW. 0 or 1 cyclist fatals a year...... I just looked at your stats, not as bad as I thought, oh wait he's the 3rd this year.
You have a 13 mph speed limit on that MUP?? LOL. NO such nonsense here, not even on the High Level bridge commuter route with plenty of 2 way mixed speed use and cast iron poles on both sides. I never see anybody else on my century highway rides.
For REAL skill, I rode my 120 lb Rohloff14 bike from Chilliwack to the Port Mann bridge on the Trans Canada FREEWAY, sneering at the NO bikes allowed sign. LOL. Plus smack thru the middle of every BIG city in the NW with NO hellmet.

The news story said he was NOT going to work. And the poor guy missed the total eclipse, darn.
>> I just found a pick of his CF bike, looks undamaged.
