Yeah ... Rowan was around when it happened and they had the memorial earlier this year.
When we first moved here we lived in a place on the Eastern shore and I walked home sometimes, over the bridge. They've got a system in place where if a large ship comes along, they shut down the bridge until it passes ... and they have warnings up for cyclists and walkers, but I discovered that if the warning goes off after a pedestrian passes the warning lights etc. that pedestrian will end up standing in the middle of the bridge all alone and wondering where all the traffic went. First time that happened was a bit startling!

What kind of cycling enthusiast notices "love locks" on a bridge without taking any notice of a fantastic Bianchi parked on said bridge? The world's going to pot.
Off-topic: IthaDan, you're in Ithaca? My sister lives there. Wanna buy a cool Bianchi?

18 mile creek near Buffalo WV, Believe it or not but that creek is a good musky hole.
Yeah as soon as I saw it I knew it was coming home with me.
