Cyclist hurt at Memorial Circle

[KLizotte]

Heard that there was a cyclist down “at the circle west of Memorial Bridge” on NPR this morning causing a backup of traffic. Don’t have any more info than that. Hope he or she is ok!!

I went through in the AM around 730 and didn’t see anything.

Last week I watched a Omni bus clip a Metrobus on the front corner though! Traffic was already pretty bad in the circle, I assume it only went downhill from there :p

I saw that too, we must have been crossing paths at the time.

Omni guy wasn’t paying attention at all. I was giving some tourist folks some directions right above the stop signs and heard this *cccrruunnnnccchhhh* and turned around in time just to see him tear off the front corner of that Metro bus. I was reminded why I hate driving to work when I watched the buses just stop and sit there in the intersection :rolleyes:

Do you take the Mt V trail from there or go up and wrap around the cemetery into Rosslyn?

I come across Memorial Bridge and cross the parkway to head towards the cemetery and into Arlington.
