Not sure what that means, I just thought it was an interesting story how he partnered with Sidney Garfield to offer healthcare for the shipyard workers.

Or the significance of modern day health care, and how Henry J. Kaiser was involved with the manufacturing process of those liberty ships.

I spent the night on the Hornet with my son when he was doing cub scouts. Maybe the next time they play Cal, they can visit the Hornet. An even better overnight trip was the SS Jeremiah O'Brien liberty ship in SF. That was my favorite event with the cub scouts.

Hawkins mentioned this week in a press conference the importance of being an academic institution first and foremost, and that the team will be taking a trip on the USS Midway while they're down in San Diego.

No way! I grew up on Warm Springs Road (just north of Bennet Valley Rd) and my parents still live there. I regularly ride my MTB to Annadel. Even though my dad use to ride, he still gets grumpy about the cyclists, but always does the right thing.

EWU beats UNLV in 2OT.

I'd be surprised if that quarterback starts next week.

Venable was outstanding tonight. Can't wait to see more of him.

agreed. But that was a long time ago. Regardless, YEEESSSSS!!!!! Nice "W!"

I like how the announcers keep talking about how Davis beat Stanford 16 years ago, like Tulsa is somehow like Stanford.

Clearly the news is getting out there how good the Aggies are. Last week, ESPN's Matchup Predictor gave Davis a 6.0% chance of winning. Today, 6.1% ;-)

Colby Wadman was a punter for the Broncos from 2018-2019.

The only thing I know about Tulsa.

"As an aside, for years I've seen cyclists blow through stop signs. It doesn't seem legal or safe, I just shake my head."

Thanks for proving my point. Your observations have nothing to do with Knapp's death.

"Cyclist gets hit by car -> people share stories about how cyclists behave badly. That's all, that's the source of my anger/frustration."

How do we educate people on why rules that are written for cars might not be what's safe for cyclists? When people who follow the rules get ran over, you start to wonder if following the rules is what's most safe. For your specific experience, some times being in the middle of the lane is what makes you most visible, and I've heard/read, "Oh my God, I didn't see them!!!" And it's labeled a bike accident. Anyway, I apologize for reacting so strongly. I'm just tired of reading stories of cyclists getting killed by distracted drivers. It's salt in the wound when the response is, "Well, cyclists run stop signs all the time." That fact is completely irrelevant compared to distracted motorists causing accidents (and completely ignores the fact that motorists also regularly blow stop signs).

I don't know the Knapp family. But they're just one more family who has to deal with the result of the careless action of a stranger. My frustration is that this discussion is like a broken record. Cyclist gets hit by car -> people share stories about how cyclists behave badly. That's all, that's the source of my anger/frustration.

I'll also let the Knapp family know that even though their dad/husband is dead, it bothers you and others that "some" cyclists break the rules. Even though a distracted motorist, breaking the law, killed their family member. Why are we talking about cyclists who get in your way on the road, and not motorists who text and drive and kill people?

Also, specifically, what road are you on where the speed limit is 55, and cyclists are in the road (99% of cyclists can't ride at 25 mph)? That sounds like poor city planning, and another major issue. Why would any cyclist be on a road where the speed limit is 55?

The white line isn't necessarily a bike lane. That is a line for motorists to know where the edge of the road is, not for a place for cyclists to ride their bikes. Especially when it's filled with dirt, debris, glass and other objects that may cause accidents for cyclists. I hear you regarding cyclists not pulling over like tractors. But, we've all been stuck behind school busses, tractors, RVs etc. It doesn't mean we physically want to kill those people.

If you want to have the courteous and legal argument with me, please come ride bikes with me and see how courteous, predictable and law abiding motorists are.

The driver in the car behind you is the problem, not the tractor, RV, cyclist, horse, pedestrian, you name it in front of you.

You are the problem. The fact that you say there are entitled cyclists is the exact problem. You are why people don't care about a entire group of human beings. That you think entitlement is specific to cyclists is the problem. Entitlement is a people problem. But you see it as a problem with people who you deem to be "entitled" to be on your roads.

Don't ever honk at a cyclist. It isn't polite. Let me blow an air horn in your ear and see how you like it. Pass when it's safe. It isn't the job of the person in front of you to yield the road. It's your job to wait patiently and pass safely.

Edit - sorry, but this issue is a huge trigger for me. When someone sees a cyclist who is trying to take the lane, or be seen so they don't get run over, they're seen as "entitled." If we hug the curb, motorists blow by us with no respect. How do cyclists share the road safely and not get killed?

It all depends. I'd guess with the high profile of the person this kid killed makes it different. There are plenty of examples of slaps on the wrist.
