    RIP Rider

    Damn people not looking before turning. And they didn't even stay at the scene. They just left.

    Re: RIP Rider

    Thanks for posting, Benny. I hope they catch those SoBs. Let's keep our eyes open this weekend:
    "... Rangewood Drive when a metallic green sedan turned left in front of the them. The car hit both bikes. Police were looking for the car involved and said the car should have two passenger side impacts."

    RIP rider.

    There was another fatal crash last night as well. The guy on a Harley left the Shovelhead Bar, got onto I25 and lowsided into the guardrail. No helmet, no gear, typical Harley type rider. RIP riders.

    Re: RIP Rider

    Unfortunatley, I put my bike down Thursday night myself. Broken leg was the case that they gave me. I was lucky enought to get away with just that. But the people that called 911 didnt even get out of their car to see if I was ok. I limped over to their car to talk to them.
