it sounds like the car was turning into the plaza and probably misjudged the safe distance due to the excessive speed. Again, I don’t know for sure, just speculating.
I constantly hear bikes ripping by my house on Vly at 60-80+ in a 30mph residential neighborhood with “blind” turns. I almost pulled out in front of one about a month ago. Was getting ready to turn into my driveway and saw him about 1/4-3/8 of a mile down the road. Decided to be patient and wait for him to go by (even though I had plenty of room). thank god I did b/c he closed real quick and there is no doubt he would have hit me… he had to have been going at least 70.
thats scarry. Actually went on a ride with a couple of 21 year olds a few weeks ago, don’t remember the road but it was off 890.
they were screaming through downhill blind hair pins. I was going to fast as well. at least they had been down the road several times before. i hung back quite a bit and judged they blind corners by how then hit them. It was exhilerating, but very freakin dangerous.
Thats because you dont have to go to bed every night knowing that you played a role in some ones death. You have no clue what that lady is gonna go through for the rest of her life due to his negligence
it happens. i mean, there have been what like 4 in the past month now? i think everyone who has a bike fucks around sometimes. jeremy might have just been too confident in his riding abilities. all i know is that he was like family to me and im going to miss him so much. way too young.
Every single motherfucker on this site does stupid shit. Ive went faster in a Honda civic then a stock 600cc sportbike can go on more occasions than I care to mention. Safe? absolutely not. I don’t want to hear, “well thats a car, blah blah” Weather anyone wants to admit it or not we do the same thing. Things happen in the blink of an eye. to say no RIP from me is fucked. Had a whole life ahead of him…
Knowing him would actually make it worse because someone could/would have told him to stop being a fucking retard and to settle down.
And yes Matt, we are ALL retarded from time to time but eventually it will catch up to all of us. Doing it day after day after day and you’re really asking for trouble.
all i can think about though is how that could have been my cousin. a good thing might have come out of this though because my dad is now selling his bike and i think my cousin might too.
