      Thanks DM for posting this. This presentation will be followed up by a community meeting Sept. 26 at the Medlock Presbyterian Church. The community hopes to hear what the County and City will do to make N. Decatur safer for pedestrians and bicyclist.

      my highly confidential sources tell me the audit results will be: “y’all bikers and walkers need to be careful.”

        “The other day my neighbor has a dented bike
        Second day he called me from intensive care
        Says he needs a picture of the dented bike
        For the evidence of what a wreck he had

        Accident
        Accident

        Lift that fork, eat that snail
        Garcon summon up a new cocktail
        Lift that fork, eat that snail
        Garcon summon up a new cocktail

        Crash my bicycle
        Crash my bicycle
        In a big South Carolina wreck
        I crash my bicycle

        And I won some damages and they were punitive
        By which I mean the punishment was damaging
        It crushed my hand
        It crushed my head
        Garcon, where’s my drink?

        Wreck!
        Observe the front wheel spinning upside down
        Wreck!
        The red reflector fragments strewn around
        Wreck!
        The back wheel’s ‘O’ is now a letter ‘D’
        Wreck!
        I was an ‘I’ and now I am a ‘V'”

        –from John Linnell, “South Carolina”
