True, but then I would be comparing apples to oranges since firearms are designed as weapons while bicycles are not (I'm not even sure how I would use my bicycle as a weapon). Comparing the gun hobbyist to the bicyclist, the figures are quite similar. I used 2008 out of laziness, it was easy to find, but I wouldn't be surprised that if we did a chart of twenty years the top spot for accidents would vary between the two. But both statistics pale if we throw accidental drownings into the mix. They exceed either figure by a factor of five or six times. And, as I often do, I am leading us off topic.
