Ghost Bikes: In Memory

By Nancy Tipton

It's like "crosses" for bicyclists who have died on city streets

Ramon Gonzales of Bixble Electric makes preparations for the installation of a crossing signal on Comanche NE next to a "Ghost Bike" where Roy Sekreta was killed a year ago when hit by a car.

 

Ghost Bikes are an international cycling tradition -- painted white and padlocked to street signs near the site of accidents in which a cyclist has been killed.
