A San Francisco cyclist is "clinging to life" after they were hit by a pickup truck at a freeway off-ramp yesterday. In the heavy-traffic area of Bayshore Boulevard at the Cesar Chavez Street off-ramp, the unidentified bicyclist was hit while trying to cross several lanes of traffic at around 2:10 p.m.

According to the Gate, he or she "is in critical condition with life-threatening head injuries at San Francisco General Hospital." The truck driver, though, was not cited.

This comes a week after cyclist Kirk Janes was struck and killed at Fulton and Steiner. Again, be careful out there, riders.

Update: Said cyclist is now firmly grasping to life, it seems. He's listed in "critical condition" now. He's doing far better than he was when he was initially reported as dead.
