i'd never heard of these until recently, apparently for about the last 10 years if someone dies in a cycling accident, someone paints a bike white and leaves it in that spot. I've never seen one before. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_bike" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Re: Ghost bikes
Use to see one everyday. Stretch of road parallel to a waste transfer station. Naturally lots of big trucks use the road and so there is a bike track 5metres offset from the road.
Every day I saw fools choosing to ride the road instead of using the track, who is the ghost bike there for cyclists or motorists? Just a matter of time till there is two if the cyclists think they are going to win against two trucks.
