Harry Fenton was a longtime advocate for safer roads. Now those who knew him hope his death brings renewed attention to bike safety in Philadelphia.

      ACTUAL TITLE

      Harry Fenton wanted safer streets for cyclists. Then he was killed on his bike in a hit-and-run.

      I hate when people try to tell me what to feel. It’s already not good when the news does it.
