ride safe out there...

just found out an good friend from high school lost her mother in a motorcycle accident. her step dad was driving and her mother was a passenger when a car pulled out and hit them. the accident was a few weeks ago. the step dad is still in a coma and her mother had made good progress as late as yesterday but passed this afternoon.

I'm not trolling for sympathy, I hadn't seen Cindy or her mother in several years, I just wanted to reiterate to all my rider friends: ride safe.

and to my car driving friends: WATCH OUT FOR MOTORCYCLES. even the squids have families.

the bookkeeper I worked with at my last job was killed two summers ago. She and her husband went down to the Dragon in NC and I warned her to be careful there. She was. She was killed a month later, riding her Harley in Frederick, MD...right in front of her husband. :notcool: Someone pulled out from a side street and didn't see them and that was it.

Very sad. Riding motorcycles is dangerous.
