Widow producing ‘Ghostbike’ in honor of her late husband

A bicycle painted entirely white from wheels to handlebars leans against a traffic sign in Lake Orion, Mich.

The ghost bike marks the location near where 57-year-old cyclist Ralph Dennis Finneren was struck and killed by a distracted driver on July 27, 2011. Finneren’s widow, Judith Finneren, wants to tell the world the story using the Sedona Film School as the medium.

She is currently in preproduction for her short film “Ghostbike: End Distracted Driving Now-Save Lives!” and will be filming in Sedona on Tuesday, Feb. 5. On Sunday, Feb. 10, the crew heads to Michigan and will wrap-up filming there on Monday, Feb. 18.
