I'm still on the mailing lists from Boston, where I lived before moving
here. The information below is from one of the lists. There is a
memorial ride Saturday, Sept 23rd @ 8:30am; details are on
http://www.massbike.org/ .
In addition, the Boston papers have been covering the story. These URLs

For those of you who know the area, the crash was at the intersection of
Highland and Gray Streets in Arlington Heights.
Online memorials to Nicole Reinhart are multiplying faster than
either I or the Arlington town webmaster can keep track of them. It is
truly touching to see people use the Web in this way. Her life and her
death have profoundly affected people all over the US and beyond.

is a very emotional, moving account by a friend of hers who
watched the race (though not the crash). It has several
photos of her, and of her Saturn teammates racing through Arlington.

e-mail messages.

are two more columns from her hometown newspaper, the Morning Call of
Allentown, Pennsylvania.
Many additional messages from those who knew her, and those who didn't,
have been added to
