Jamie Peck, the cyclist hit by the drunk driver on Sprecher, is in 
fair condition.  From what I heard he suffered a gash in the back of 
his head, has multiple broken bones and will require a neck brace 
for about 6 weeks.  Overall he will make a full recovery.  A helmet 
would have lessened the severity of the head injury.

He is the tenured UW geography professor, originally from Great 
Britain, that Mike Barrett thought.  In Europe no one wears a 
helmet - unless you are an American.

If I recall, the section of Sprecher where the accident occurred has 
bike lanes/paved shoulder.
