I know that all cyclists down are tragic and horrible. This one, especially so. Father and son out sharing a ride, much like sharing a game of catch, and they were both struck and killed by a drunk driver.
Look, I don’t have kids myself, but I know lots of you do. Be careful out there and keep them close and as safe as you can.
Damn, this one hits close to home. My brother lives in Wilmington and him and I have pedaled down that street numerous times. My thoughts go out to the family during this tragic time of loss. Be safe out there.
One of my oldest riding buddies knew them. Absolutely tragic.
My deepest condolences to their family and friend.
…how amazingly sad…
…as you suggest, giantcu92, “…much like sharing a game of catch…”…
…it was a sunday morning when “…they were both struck and killed by a drunk driver.”…a sunday morning…
…my heart goes out to those who’ll spend a lifetime of trying to understand that…
really rotten, can’t imagine what that family is going through. i’ve ridden that road a few times, now maybe never again.
Agree with bikegonewild.
Drunk on a Sunday morning ?!?!?!?!
WTF!!!
Sundays are meaningless for a drunk.
