Ok, what about the accident on NF Blvd today around 2pm? Bike was laid down about 4 miles north of the 290. Didn’t see another car involved but they had about 10 cop cars, fire truck, and 2 ambulances.

my buddy john and josh were riding with Sean when it happened along with 2 other guys, Chad and Matt. It happened on Old Transit past Bob-o-Links. John was behind him and he said it looked like Sean was starting to pull to the side of the road to slow down then he just lost the bike. Sean slid into a pole then the bike followed him and hit him. \

Be careful out there riders, theres still a lot of debris and small rocks in the center of the lanes on many roads that have accumulated and been scraped up from the snow plows in the winter. Theres also some nasty potholes out there too that can put you in a bad groove and get ya in trouble. Im happy to see so many people hopping on bikes this year, but really the roads are not ideal for us to be riding on yet, and thats something thats easy to forget when its 65 and sunny out. Be careful guys!

There is ALOT of debris out there still, so take it easy on the the turns unless you KNOW that it is ok, and have scouted the road already.

I rode past there on my bike while they were putting the motorcycle on the tow truck. I don’t know how bad the guy was. The car was not damaged too badly.

thats what you get for a buying a brand new bike and being an asshat right out of the parking lot. bikes are no joke and if you mess with them when you dont know what your doing, the outcome is always road\>you. i guess some people just have to learn the hard way and sometimes that means death. such a shitty and irresponsible way to die.
