I thought you meant Rider too...
Why I think I've decided to sell the broken Honda, pack up, and head to racing/track days next year. I had another die this year, an ex-coworker. Was 26 and had a 10 month old at home. Rumor is a car crossed the line and it sent him and his 750 into a tree line. Helmet either was ripped off his head, or was hanging on the side of the bike and flew off. DOA. I've had all but 2 of my friends sell their bikes after the accident. RIP.

Wow, you said that and I thought you meant "Rider" from TWF.
Still, sad. RIP

Me too. It is still sad but these things don't affect me nearly as much as someone I "know".
