On July 4th, in an annual ride which attracts hundreds of cyclists in Los Angeles, two cyclists – excellent road racers I’m told – were apparent victims of road rage. The driver in the car was an ER doctor, who according to witnesses, yelled at the cyclists then cut them off, and then slammed on the brakes in front of them.

The road where the cyclists were hit has become quite attractive to cyclists in recent years. Needless to say, these are dangerous times in LA, as car culture meets bike culture. see the story on the attached links….
