Such a shame... my heart and prayers go out to his little girl and the rest of his family and friends. 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".

He was wearing a half helmet of some sort. It came off during the accident as it was found laying quite a ways away from him.
His bike was still upright and embedded in the front of the pickup, up to the firewall, when authorities arrived.
The pickup driver gets a $20 citation for turning in front of oncoming traffic.
SFC Geist pays with his life. Don't think that's what he had in mind when he said he would give his life for his country.

We never like to hear these things but it is a sobering reminder that they are all out to get us. Especially the ones turning left.

RIP rider. My thoughts & prayers go to his family and friends.

I almost got it sitting at a red light. I THOUGHT I saw the SOB starting to stop so I relaxed and put it in neutral. SOB slide between me and the next car missing me by inches. I kicked my own ass for relaxing.
