We know cyclists' lives are considered cheap. Jonathan Goldsbie in the Eye Weekly's "Kill a cyclist, pay $110", explains well cyclists' frustration and anger that their lives are worth little once they step onto a bike. And, to add insult to injury we pay $110 if we don't have a bell. Where is the proportion in that?

Someone sent I Bike TO this very disturbing link to a Portland craigslist "missed connections". I don't know what to say without giving it away. It might be real; it might be a hoax.

Let's just say that it involves a woman on a bike, a man with car door and a gun, and a very strange idea of what is socially acceptable.

Here's my advice to the woman who got doored: the only kind of apology you should accept is a wire transfer of $10,000 or more.
