Being bikeless this year after having ridden the last 2, I am almost questioning whether I should get back in the saddle again or not next year. We lost 2 guys in completely different situations just before Memorial Day here in Syracuse. I probably will ride again, it’s just hard to see guys lose their lives this way. RIP to the riders and all those affected by this. ---

> [@boxxa](#): > > What is? Running from cops and weaving through traffic at 100+ mph? I don’t want to speak ill of the dead but hearing that the riders made bad choices and wasn’t a case of a everyday rider getting blindsided by some one on a cell phone makes it easier to handle. Things like this keep you in the right frame of mind that everyone can die out there so you need to be alert and not take things for granted. How easy it is to/ frequency of people dieing. I don’t believe I am old nor responsible enough to get a bike :shrug: ---

> [@yeamabu](#): > > So pretty much, if one of your family members die and I see it happen… Dont say anything because well, I dont want to get in trouble. Correct? If you were doing something grossly illegal with that person who died, and that illegal activity directly resulted in their death, then yes, shut the hell up around the police. This isn’t some unsolved mystery murder case. They ran from the cops, crashed, and died. If you saw some critical piece of evidence and feel you should share it with the investigation fine, just do it through an attorney who can explain exactly how to share that story without admitting guilt. Or “man up” and just go talk to the cops without representation “because someone died” and have years to think about what a great moral victory it was for you while you sit in jail like neon guy. Because that is EXACTLY what he did. He felt terrible, explained exactly how the crash happened, and got tossed in jail for it. Enough people threw their lives away on bad decisions last night. Having buddies get jammed up with the law isn’t going to bring anyone back. ---

The only thing I have to add…are some of you guys seriously blaming the cops for this accident? From the interview on news 4 tonight, it sounded like the attitude was that the cops shouldn’t have attempted to pull them over at all and that’s the reason they crashed. Hopefully someone can fill me in because that definitely didn’t add up for me. “They might have been going a little fast, but it’s no reason to chase them, and now they’re dead because of that,” said Belvedere. Mike Mangiapane said, “Just because he was on a sport bike doesn’t mean he was doing anything wrong, illegal.” ---

So if anyone is speeding or breaking the lwa, how is the police to stop the vehchal and write a citation, ticket oor arrest. The cop was simply doing his job. Yes this is sad to see people dead, But now way is the cops fualt. I will dis agree, If they were speeding the cop was doing his job and gong after the people breaking the law. ---
