Man, every time a sports personality from that era passes I shake my head at how old they are and how old I’m getting. Seems like the blink of an eye ago that he was still on the court and the guy was already 64 years old.

He went for a bike ride Friday evening and didn't return. Police say he crashed but no reason to believe a vehicle was involved -- so it wasn't a Sean Bradley or Kevin Clark incident.

I was hit by a car on a bike in college once while crossing an intersection with the pedestrian signal. First thing to hit the pavement was my head. Concussion effects lasted about a week. The only other time I've been on a bicycle was in the Amsterdam countryside. I can't trust people after that accident.

Similar happened to me in high school. Crossing with the light. Next think I remembered was being loaded into the ambulance for the ride to Evanston Hospital where I spent the night. Concussion and broken collarbone. But I have never had any qualms about bike riding.

Mt. Eaton

I would think a bicycle would disintegrate below him.
