For all of its hills and river valleys, Pittsburgh has a vibrant biking community. This bike memorial was placed here on Forbes Avenue, across from the Carnegie Music Hall, for a woman who was killed last October in a chain reaction crash. Given how the artificial flowers haven't faded yet, I'd venture to say that this memorial is rather new. I hope the city leaves it there for a bit before removing it (as they do with all of the other bike memorials). I think that it's good for the collective unconscious to be needled with the brevity of all things.
