Three triathlete died today in a car crash in Rougemont, Quebec. 

http://www.globalmontreal.com/world/cyclists+killed+critically+injured+Rougemont/3029431/story.html

They were a group of six, heading to a training camp. I probably met them at one of the triathlon around here, this is a sad day around here
 
When does the road will be safe for all of us.

When gasoline reaches $20+/gallon and people's incomes have remained the same as they are today.

Very tragic situation. I am sitting here all bummed out because I should be racing Florida 70.3 right now. I was involved in a accident in my garage Wed. night requiring stistches in my arm and possible skin graph. But I tell myself that I am fortunate because I will be allright amd back racing in a month. No matter how bad my situation is sometimes, there always is someone that has it worse than me. My prayers go out to these people and their families.

Terrible tragedy....My Heart goes out to all involved.....

But there are a few things that stick out here that are sadly being overlooked....

Another cyclist on a camping trip who was in the area and is familiar with the road said the highway is “ very dangerous.”

Then they interview several people that say they are not surprised...this is a very dangerous road and place to ride....

I think sometimes you have to review you're route and ask "Is it really worth it?".....

Please everyone be safe...this is happening more and more often, we'll NEVER be safe sharing the road with cars, but you can certainly minimize your chances of getting hit by riding on less traveled roads....
