What's worse is he finally upped and killed someone. Scott David Peoples, 24, was on the verge of signing a $1 million deal to ride overseas when he was struck and killed by an elderly driver in country Victoria.
Mr Peoples was on a training ride on the Mooroondah Highway at Merton when he was struck by a partially blind 70-year-old driver in 2006.

The subject of Crop Circles is something that has mystified the world for ages. Crop circles are essentially strange geometric formations that are appearing by the thousands all over our planet. In a number of cases, the formations are clearly related to myths and religions.
The appearance of a modest, elegant circle of pressed wheat some 30 ft in diameter in southern England in August 1972, was the beginning of the study of crop circles in our era. Two and a half decades and some 10,000 formations later, crop circles have grown into complex mathematical fractals, in lengths up to three quart...
