Berkeley cyclist determined to ride again after serious crash

Four years after a cyclist was fatally injured at San Pablo Avenue and Virginia Street, another Berkeley cyclist has been hurt, renewing safety concerns at the intersection. Deborah Marks was biking home from seeing bodywork clients Nov. 5 when the crash happened, at San Pablo Avenue and Virginia Street at about 1:30 p.m. "I was knocked out. I never saw a car that hit me," she said. "I woke up in the ambulance on a gurney with a wonderful tech named Jack who took very good care of me." Marks, 75, suffered two brain bleeds, with the second discovered six hours after the first. She was given anti-seizure medication and kept in the hospital for two days. She is now home recovering. She told The Scanner the crash was a wakeup call about wearing her helmet, which she hadn't always done. Fortunately, she had worn it that day.

The Scanner initially heard about last week's crash from a reader who witnessed the aftermath and was concerned. "You hear so much about seniors
