    • I have also been looking for info on how this bicyclist is doing. On a regular basis, about the same time on Monday nights, I have driven past a bicyclist laboring up the hill right where this accident happened. This bicyclist is always very hard to see. If I recall correctly, he rides with no lights, though I’m not sure that’s even possible.
      It is southbound on Pleasant Hill Rd.,near the place where it joins Taylor. I think it surely must be this person who was hit. So very sad!!! I left a bit later that night, soon after I heard the sirens, and the police had closed the road to traffic.

  1. It could have been worse. It could have been reported by Keith Burbank of KTVU who reported a bicycle accident on hwy 24 today and didn’t know the difference between rode and road and he and they and his and theirs…journalism…language…communication. OMG. He doesn’t even need to open a book to get those right. He just has to want to.
