A Picture is Worth... Being Nice to Cyclists in Toronto

How cool is that. Nice, kind letter of appeciation.

That's a great picture. Make my day today.

Nice

Awesome message. Made me all warm inside =)

And this, also gives me faith in humanity.

If I'd done that in the UK I'd probably have been had up for flyposting.

You do sometimes see announcements in local papers' smallads thanking strangers for their help, though.

Wow! That's cool.

I had that too - flew over the top of my handlebars and *tons* of people can to help me!

Faith in humanity restored indeed :)

That is about the sweetest, and nicest thing I've seen in a while. Thanks for the lift.

i think hes being sarcastic...

Awesome... Yes people still care about the environment. Not just the natural world, but the social world.

Nice thought... :)
thanks for good spirits

Wow !! How nice is that!!

A couple of years ago this older Asian lady who rides this way too small for her banana seat bike was on the pathway with blood coming out of her head after a fall. There was a whole crowd of us getting help, giving her a hand, and tending to her.
I see her almost every morning and we wave.

On January 2, 2008 at 8 am- I am going down 3rd Avenue in Brooklyn near Pacific Street on the mountain bike and wham!! I am 1/2 way passed this parked minivan when the edge of the door is staring me in the face!!
It caught my bar end and whipped me around and I got thrown onto the yellow lines and the crosswalk.
I am lucky. That piece of real estate is usually flooded with heavy traffic. It was empty for my flight across the street. I was OK but i have this wicked purple arm now and the purple is migrating day by day down my arm. All else OK.
I am almost glad there was no law enforcement right nearby because I was cursing this guy out big time, I threw my transistor radio at him and almost started something. He's like "I didn't see you" - and I'm like - "Obviously you didn't look". I am not the smallest person out there and my flashing light is on at all times. Bike was OK because it fell on top of me.

Well, maybe that's the bad stuff for '08 out of the way and the rest of the year can be OK.

Good Luck!!
