Why does everyone in this thread assume that because I’m on a bike I’m like whipping around. It was raining and dark. If I did that then I would be the one being hit. Ofc I stopped at the stop sign. I took my turn and in front of aguardente is where I hit them

Because I see and deal with people on bikes and cars not stopping at those stop signs all the time and have seen my fair share of pedestrians hit by cyclists, luckily only close calls with cars.

Sorry I assumed you didn't stop at a corner, but going by your description it was pretty far (relatively) from the corner as your post title suggested.

I am assuming they were not in a crosswalk then.

They were not. The point of the post was not to assign blame, I feel terrible, it was obviously just a wrong place wrong time accident. Just want to make sure they are alright
