From my local cycling group this morning. I like the part about "the
apparently
inebriated driver tried to drag him out of the way so he could flee"
--R (who got the first conviction under the SC Bike Law against the guy
who hit me -- MB Content: it was a Sprinter van he used in the assault)

The cousin of a friend of mine was struck by a car last night on King
St. where
it intersects with Spring. The incident was pretty bad but he is okay with a
broken leg and a damaged knee. In a true measure of class the apparently
inebriated driver tried to drag him out of the way so he could flee.
Fortunately there was a Charleston City police officer there who saw the
whole
thing and stopped the guy.
I write this because the cyclist, Sam ***, is from Greer, where he and his
family are avid cyclists, but he is relatively new in town. I would like to
give the Charleston Cycling community a chance to show their support for any
cyclist hit on our streets. I'm sure he would love to hear from all of us
wishing him a speedy recovery, and I'm sure his family would love to
know that
the community in Charleston is looking out for there son.
Here is his email:
***@..
.
Thanks All,
Be Safe

Rich - any community agitating notes to share? ;)
