Letter of the Week: Thanks to Richmond cyclist

Dear Editor, I need your help to track the good Samaritan who helped me out on May 12. On that day, my dog crossed the street and got killed by a car at approximately 7:45 p.m. on Cooney Road, near the Granville Avenue intersection.

Is this a cycling city? It depends where you ride. Cruising along the dyke is lovely, but watch out for No. 3 Road. If cycling is to become a truly viable means of transportation in Richmond, a more comprehensive initiative is needed, according to many advocates. September, 2013.

Dear Editor,

I need your help to track the good Samaritan who helped me out on May 12. 

On that day, my dog crossed the street and got killed by a car at approximately 7:45 p.m. on Cooney Road, near the Granville Avenue intersection. 

I was in shock to see my dog dying and this person left his bike on the side of the road to help me deal with the accident that had just occurred. 

It happened so fast, I did not have time to thank him; I am also wondering if his bike was still there after he helped me out. 

It would be appreciated to see this present letter in the Richmond News, so he knows how thankful I am.
