The State Journal article mentioned that alcohol and speed were believed to be
factors.

Even in a Chevy Tahoe, I think a person should be able to realize the
difference between a grown man on a bicycle & a piece of falling ice. My
sympathy goes out to Dale Connors family & friends. -Aaron Crandall

Authorities: Bicyclist Struck, Killed By Hit-And-Run Driver
Rider Was Apparently Struck From Behind
UPDATED: 6:37 pm CST February 7, 2007
MADISON, Wis. -- A man riding his bike was hit by a car and killed on Tuesday
night in the Town of Blooming Grove.
According to the Dane County Sheriff's Department, the fatal collision happened
at about 7:45 p.m. on Femrite Drive, under the interstate. The driver of the
car that hit the man later left the scene, WISC-TV reported.
Dale Connors, 53, was found injured and lying in the road. He later died from
his injuries
A 44-year-old Cottage Grove woman contacted authorities later that night saying
that she might have hit something.
The Dane County Sheriff Dave Mahoney said that she has been very cooperative in
the investigation and she said she thought ice had fallen onto her Chevy Tahoe.
"It was believed that something possibly had fallen off the bridge and struck
the vehicle," Mahoney said. "It was only through subsequent looking through the
vehicle once she arrived home that she realized that there was more damage."
The driver hasn't been arrested and it's not clear whether she will face any
charges, WISC-TV reported.
Authorities are asking anyone who might have witnessed the accident to call the
Dane County tip line at 608-284-6900.
