it also shows how cyclists have evolved to never bang their heads when
they crash, oh wait a minute, what a good job he wasn't wearing a helmet
or his injuries would have been intensified.
Anyway, bicycles can stop in less than 5 feet from 20mph, Simon told me,
so it must be true. So therefore the car must have run into an
immovable object to stop so fast, there, it was not the cyclist
travelling too fast after all and the crash was the fault of the car
driver, sorry, I mean cager. You see, I am getting this psychlobabble.
