Cursed cycle race or not cursed cycle race

Back from Port Edward yesterday safely.... But I'm jumping ahead, let me back track a tad. After the tragic death of professional cyclist Murray Stunder, the popular south coast cycle race, The Sardine Classic, was renamed the Murray Stunder Sardine Classic. This was a very emotional time for the friends of the cyclist who passed away after colliding with a speeding truck. A big turn out for social and serious cyclists competing in memory of Stunder, and less importantly for the cash prize presented to the winner.
It crossed my mind later that the race may be cursed... How strange of me given I don't make a habit of believing in such things. However, on our way home after the race, we got caught up in a massive traffic jam- we initially thought may be a road block so we ensured that driving licenses were on hand. We then received a call from a friend who was also en rout home, informing us that there was a massive accident further on involving two cyclists afar and a Bakkie. We then heard that everyone in the car died and passengers and driver in the bakkie were just injured. However, the same cannot be said for the two cyclists, who also passed away. The state of the accident scene was horrific, however, having being around blood and injury many times this did not make me squirm, however, I did think how quickly things can change due to human error. Sometimes not even medical attention can't preserve life, which is very sad! But choices always have consequences. My hearts go out to all of those who knew the victims involved.
