Ghost Bikes are small and somber memorials for bicyclists who are killed or hit on the street. A bicycle is painted all white and locked to a street sign near the crash site. They serve as reminders of the tragedy that took place on an otherwise anonymous street corner, and as quiet statements in support of cyclists right to safe travel.

    When I see a ghost bike it scares and saddens me. Children's bikes especially. A couple of years ago one appeared at Oxford Circus in London bit.ly/cNJvAd
    That was awful and chilling moment. Did I spot the Harrow Road underpass area a couple of times? that's an unnerving stretch of road off a dual carriageway!..

    I agree this is a very powerful piece and a poignant reminder, congrats!
