My son was killed on a motorcycle by an unlicensed, uninsured, repeat offender that ran a stop sign and made an illegal turn in front of my son killing him. The cops never drug tested this driver or his four teenage male passengers. The killer walked out of court a free [man?] and grinned at me. Karma may be the only justice we get. I hope you are up and pedaling soon. Good Luck I am so sorry to hear of your injustice.

Saint Mark Catholic Church is located at 5601 South Flamingo Road South West Ranches, FL, 33330. The event was put together by members of the South Florida cycling community for all bike riders, regardless of age, gender, bike and faith. There will be a moment of silence to remember those cyclists WHO LOST their lives in the past and this year, it will be a chance for all of the riders to turn their bike’s cranks backwards or ring their bicycle bells in celebration of cycling. Due to the tragic event in Haiti a Hat (helmet) will be passed around to raise donations for the victims of the earthquake. Riders will be asked to donate in cash the equivalent of whatever they spent on a rest stop while riding. For example a Gatorade + granola bar. After the short ceremony a “Ghost Bike” will be placed later around the intersection between Glades and route 84 in memory of Leon Hamer killed last year on a bike accident. The event is SUPPORTED BY all of the major cycling clubs in South Florida and we expect hundreds of riders, skaters and non-motorized scooters to attend this beautiful and wonderful event. With all of the numerous accidents involving cyclist, including one fatal accident on January, 2010, where a cyclist was killed on his way to Key Biscayne, the cycling community needs all the help we can get. Pls visit in Facebook the group The Blessing of the Bikes in South Florida for more information and updates. 1) The Blessing of The BIKES was born in New York City, at the Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine in NY. Currently The Blessing of The Bike in NY is on its 12th consecutive event with more than 500 CYCLISTS assisting this wonderful day.
