Riggsm tweets shortly after 4 p.m. No immediate word on the bicyclist's condition, but traffic is a mess, he says.

Cyclist was conscious enough to be sitting slightly upright talking to BPD, BFD, EMS. No visible injuries, many witnesses talking to BPD.

It is rush hour at an intersection that, on good day, is terrible. Unfortunate for her, hope she's okay.

Edit: to add, actual strike was at Mass Ave/Belvidere (McDonald's), but the ripple effect stretches for blocks in all directions.

thank goodness

Thank goodness she's conscious and speaking. I bike that stretch of Mass Ave to and from work almost every day, and it is easily the most terrifying part of my commute.

here here, from Columbus to Beacon, the entirety of that stretch is a nightmare. I'm glad she is okay though.
