As it is now the eve of the passing of a comrade I'm compelled to post regarding keeping it safe out there.
I've now read of 2 big injuries on the street today and was at the track when another one of our members fell down. It was a bad day for our community overall.
It's mid season, and we're all feeling pretty confident with our skills. The winter cobwebs have blown off, the tarmac is warm and the days keep being nice for riding and having fun. It is at this time that our guard drops, sometimes just a little, and the opportunity of badness to occur rears it's ugly head.
To those who have gotten hurt today, please heal quickly and rejoin us for the ride.
To the rest of us, Please; stay alert, wear your gear, keep your skills sharp and ride within your limits. Stay safe.
Scott
