Ghost Bikes

My sincere condolences go to any one who has lost a loved one who was riding their bike.

I find the ghost bike thing to be in bad taste. Even the term ghost bike I find inappropriate. If memorials were left everywhere for folk that die there would me no room to move. What about runners, car drivers, motorcyclists that are killed through no fault of their own? Its trite in my opinion.

There are far better ways to reach people and raise awareness. I wouldn't want one put up for me if I died on my bike.

The highway code has more in it about horses than it does about bicycles. The use of bicycles must outweigh the use of horses by 10,000 / 1. This is the sort of thing that needs re-dressing.
