And now you guys know why our LEAST favorite question is:
"HOW FAST WILL MY BIKE GO?"
Amen to that.

There was a 34 year old guy that lived nearby. He had just bought a new customed Harley. He was taking a ride around 4 in the afternoon, he was only 2 minutes from his house. He was going about 20-25 mph, a 19 year old driving a small Japanese SUV made a left hand turn and hit the motorcycle broadside throwing the guy about 20 feet to the side of the road at the corner. He died within minutes, it was real sad to see this guy sacked like it was nothing. The young driver was saying he hurt his arm, there was no outward display of concern for the now dead man laying there like a dead animal. He just kept rubbing his sore arm. It seemed like he felt no responsiblity for this guy's death. He probably thought this guy was on a motorcycle, he knew the risks. This accident was about a mile from my house, I ride on this wide road with the mb all the time. I read all these stories about other guy's accidents with careless drivers while riding there mb. I hate to think this is so common where I live.
But its more a mater of physics.
