So what actually happened to the rider??
Unfortunately no amount of leather will save you from that kinda sh*t. |

F**k. What was the full story here?
Just found out a co-workers friend was riding to Sturgis, wiped out, hit a guardrail which took his right arm off 3 inches down from the shoulder. Good grief.

So, Kris, do you split lanes? I always give way to a motorcyclists when freeways in SoCa slow down. I know they appreciate that.
BTW, it's against the law to split lanes in TX. So, riders are not allowed to get to the of the line at the red signal.

Air cooled bikes need to keep moving or they overheat. Our roads have been clogged for decades, so it's no wonder this was passed into law many years ago.

Keep in mind that a LEO can ticket you for reckless driving and/or changing lanes without signaling at their discretion when you're splitting. |
