Jeff tells me that Teddy had recently been evicted from his housing through no fault of his own. Teddy did not get the bright lights and his efforts were not celebrated, but the virility of this man, in his late 70's, was testimony to the value of replacing car trips with bike trips...
As a side note, Jeff always warned me how dangerous this overpass was when I would come to visit him. Seems Teddy's death came less than a year before a bike overpass will be built and completed to obviate this troublesome way for cyclists to cross 101 on their way to Foster City and the other Baylands roads....
THX for you Tedddy. I will miss seeing you out there...
