    This should be used as an ad for GoPro (assuming that's what filmed it). Yikes.

    I rarely think of motorcycles without a little yearning. They are about moving, and humans, I think, yearn to move – it’s in our cells, in our desires. We quiet our babies with cyclic movement, and we quiet ourselves by going.

    Just read through the reddit threads... Dude was on an R1 doing about 110 when he hit that Mazda doing about 65-70 and was in a coma with brain bleeding for a month, but survived and fully recovered. Doesn't ride now. I'd say he got damn lucky after a wreck like that.

    Mdub, your sig gif is kinda ironic in this thread... haha

    This hobby we do is a killer. Gotta beat it in your head that every time you get on ur bike to keep eyes peeled to everything.


    cpl yrs ago 4-5 of us was mtg folks for a ride at moco. From 470/broadway to the Morrison exit it seemed like it took us less than 10 min. The cagers were coming up fast....and at same time you have to anticipate there moves ...

    Well should have been paying attention, you never keep your head turned for that long and mainly going that fast. One lucky dude for sure

    Why do I get a message saying the video is private? Even when I log-in to youtube, I still can't see it. "This Video is Private. Sorry About That"

    I'm not too worried about it, though. I've seen plenty of idiot videos in my time on this planet!

    Looks like they took it down. It was viewable yesterday.

    Video worked fine for me. The real estimate is 110-120 at the time of impact, so about 50-60MPH faster than the car as it was moving at the time.

    He got lucky to survive. he was stupid to take his eyes off the road at that speed. Perhaps better he quit the sport while he was ahead.
