A Follow-up On Alice Swanson
By spokesman | September 13, 2009
Alice Swanson was a 22 year old that was killed in a bicycle accident in July 2008. I wrote about her in several previous posts including one at the time of the accident, another with a tribute video of her ghost bike and one with some reflections on the ghost bike after 1 year.
I am writing again because the DC Government recently removed the Ghost Bike that was dedicated to Alice. They thought that the bike had been there long enough and people would not mind if it was removed. They were wrong. Soon after the original Ghost Bike was removed, a group of people placed 22 new Ghost Bikes at the intersection. Here is a link to a Washington Post article on the 22 Ghost Bikes and below is a video of the bikes.
