If a motorist kills someone with reckless driving, they often face jail time. This guy was speeding, and by his own admission in the wrong lane. So he would be like a motorist that decided to drive on the shoulder to avoid traffic. HE also may have ran a red light. And you can bet your ass that if s motorist killed a pedestrian in a cross walk while running a red light they would face jail time.

This idiots was also on his aerobars and therefore made no attempt to slow down. Common f***ing sense tells you that when you are in CENTRAL PARK you don't do time trials or use your aerobars. I don't care if it is a parson, or a SQUIRREL, or any other obstacle...if you are going 30+ MPH in Central Park and have no quick access to your brakes, sooner or later you are going to take a nasty spill and seriously hurt someone, or yourself. And YES, he was NOT in the bike lane, and NO, it was not legally to avoid something. This is what he ADMITS to. As for the picture and where the blood is...that is now where the accident occurred. IT is called momentum. When a bike travelling 30 MPH hits a pedestrian, the pedestrian is going to be thrown a considerable distance. If you notice, there is clearly a path shortly before the blood. THAT is where she got hit.

I can't believe anyone here is defending him in the SLIGHTEST bit. A cyclists, he is the LAST person you want to defend because he gives us all a bad name. There is a time and a place to go for speed..and what is perhaps the most heavily trafficked park in the ENTIRE WORLD is not that place.

By the way for the other posters..that IS his Strava account.
