Florida weatherman dies after cycling accident

South Florida TV weatherman out for Sunday afternoon ride clips a sign post with tragic results.

(It isn't clear if he was wearing a helmet or not.)

I edited the title. Any and all "wear a helmet" talk needs to stay within the Helmet Thread.

It's sad that the man lost his life. Condolences to his family.
