A cyclist was killed last Sunday night, on Lakeshore Rd. at Colborne Lodge, an intersection that I have been through many times, both with and without family.
The Toronto Star article is here.
The Toronto Sun article is here.
The good people at Bike Pirates and the Bike Joint led a small group down to the lakefront.
The ghost bike arrives at High Park.
There was already a small shrine with flowers laid at the foot of a tree near the intersection. The victim was 28. There was a friend there by happenstance, and he said that the victim was on a late night ride to blow off some steam after a successful theatre performance that night in Hamilton.
I am so sick of cycling in Toronto, wondering when I am next.
