    wait, not everyone gets up from a motorcycle crash? they must being doing it all wrong or something. just making light or the seriousness, but I can't but help bad for the ones that don't get up. I believe it is an assumed risk getting on a motorcycle all together. Risk goes up when you are moving on the public roads and what PPE you decide to wear. sad days.

    Riding without a helmet... play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

    Last weekend I rode past 6 Harleys just outside of Evergreen on my way to Central City and not one was wearing a helmet.

    They all had sunglasses, bandanas and a grimice face and none of them waved back, lol.

    Someone recently reminded me (I know this in the back of the my head, but never really thought about it) that a large number of Harley riders are former military. A person who's served in Iraq or Afghanistan likely has a different perception of "risk" than I do.
