i saw that ghost bike on kingsland road. and read the funeral service info attached to the bike.
it was very sad and very relevant for me.
particularly because the lad that was killed, smudge, was from clitheroe, lancs. just up the valley from where i am from. it just really made me think.
and i think our politicians / leaders are letting us down by allowing the killings by motor powered vehicle users to continue. and / or go unpublicised.
and if these ghost bikes raise awareness then that is good. in my opinion.
