More about racism than bikes...

This is an old video. July 2008. Daytona Beach, Florida. I can break it down like this: Old white guy sees black woman (who he assumed was male) riding bike on sidewalk. Accelerates his car, runs her over, and crashes into the side of his house. No remorse. Violence spurred from racism, not anti-cycling; both are inappropriate, and indicative of a person full of rage and ignorance. I'm not sure if he has been convicted, but he was charged with a hate crime. Hopefully his ass will be convicted. It's always so shocking that people like this are still out in the world, living in their little bubbles.
