Louisiana has again been dubbed one of the most dangerous states in the nation to ride a bicycle, sparking debate on just why a seemingly innocent exercise seems to carry inordinate risks.

Last week, an analysis by The Wall Street Journal concluded that the state is No. 2 nationally in bicyclist deaths, behind only Florida.

The same review said New Orleans is the sixth most dangerous of 50 metro areas when it comes to bike riding.

The grim review is not the first of its kind.

In 2015, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention said Louisiana had the the third highest rate of bicyclist deaths in the nation, behind Florida and Delaware.

When you look at how long and straight that road is, it makes you wonder what kind of retread couldn't see cyclists there. That road is very lightly traveled with very good sight lines. No excuse other than stupidity. Well that and a full size Chevyy/GMC pickup or SUV. You add that to middle aged, out of shape, poorly educated, white male, and it's a recipe for disaster.

FUN FACT:

The driver responsible for those deaths has not paid for a drink since that fateful day.
