I've been thinking a lot about the recent death of Deborah Budwig. I think
all of us who bike the Pullman highway know that it could have been any of
us. Two thoughts occurred to me:

1. a memorial ride from Pullman to Moscow to call attention to the number of
people who bike that road and the need for cyclists and auto drivers to be
vigilant. (But this requires organization and I'm not sure I'm up for it.)

2. having cyclists wear a black arm band on their left arm (the side the
cars are on) during the month of May.

If you think #2 is a good idea, I will do some spreading of the word. If #1
appeals, someone else will have to organize it.
