Alright, to raise awareness to you who ride motorcycles, I've had two people I know, one a good friend, the other I was acquaintances with, killed in the past two years due to motorcycle accidents. A girl I knew was killed in Egypt on a motorcycle when she was thrown from it not wearing a helmet, had her on life support but she was brain dead, they pulled the plug in '07.
Last night a friend of mine I grew up with, from middleschool, maybe elementary, I can't remember, I think we went to elementary together too, he was killed in a motorcycle as well.
Life is delicate, it doesn't take much to kill yourself, so be cautious people, especially on your bikes.

One reason I don't think I will ever ride motorcycles on a road where cars drive frequently.
If you get hit in a car by another car your probably gonna be ok as long as you wear a seat belt. Get hit by someone not paying attention while on a motorcycle...your fucked.
Sorry about your friend, I had an uncle that was in a major motorcycle accident a few years ago. Shits dangerous.

It's pretty shitty, I remember 2nd grade, walking across the dirt/DG playground over to the fence on the far side of the school with him and a kid named Alex. We were discussing what was cooler, power rangers or top gun. :p Uh, Yeah don't ask what side of the story I was taking. Just a shitty thing to have happen you know. I haven't talked to him in maybe 2 years. I wish I could have hung out and had a beer with him one last time you know?

Yeah people, as fun as you might have on a motorcycle, keep in mind that if you die, a lot of people will be hurt- family and friends, even people like those paramedics still have to deal with that emotionally.
Be safe on your bikes.

My uncle was in a bad wreck, and recently an old teammate was in an accident that left him in a coma for a bit. Both survived luckily. Wear a helmet if you feel the need to ride a bike, be safe.

As a rider it always is a wake up call when you hear about unfortunate events like this.
Sorry about your friend. He's at peace now.
Be safe everybody, no matter what your doing!
