Death rides a bike

Standing at the bus stop this morning the usual swarm of cyclists shot by. Round here they hold a special place in the hearts of the local motorist... and no bloody wonder. This morning though one zipped past not wearing the traditional cycling gear. A lone maverick in the midst of a sea of bright lycra, sponsorship logos and well known name branding...

He was wearing form fitting black lycra...
With a skeleton emblazoned upon it.
It seemed strangely apropos to a dying woman standing there watching them go by. Not to mention it was probably a nod to the danger of the sport K

No dead! It is a rule. (I hope you feel better soon).

Well, there is nothing to help with illness quite like grown men in spandex.
