Robert Choi hit by car and in a coma

[jack holmgren]

Fellow Randos,

Our fellow SFR rider and PBP Ancienne Barley Forseman has spread the crushing news that Robert Choi was hit by a vehicle in Ogden, UT yesterday and remains in a coma. Robert is a fixture on the doubles circuit but few of us have seen him as he rides like the wind.

Many of us ride Volagi bicycles which Barley and Robert invented...revolutionary then and still. Ironically, given the tragedy that has happened, Robert invented the Vista Light. This revolutionized cyclist conspicuity and safety as the first rear blinky.

Please send your best to Robert and his family and we all hope for a speedy and full recovery.

He sustained what seemed to be only minor injuries, only to later collapse at the office where his wife Lucy disovered...

Scary - the story says he only seemed to have minor injuries, but later collapsed and was found unconscious.

Cycling is life. 

Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.
