Not 1 car stopped that was behind me.

but as soon as I saw him moving and alright I was more worried about my bike getting hit. It was just sitting on the side of deleware for everyone to hit.

Jesus guys be careful, everytime I get on here I hear some crazy story from when you guys went out.

Given it wasn’t one of us but still, make sure everyone rides smart.

I don’t like riding with ppl I don’t know or new riders because of this.

i was kinda weary riding with him too but since it was just down deleware i figured we’d be fine. joe is newer rider and he knows enough to ride within his limits. i do hope the guy is ok though…

tim, wanna meet up after work and we can wait around for connor and anyone else?

Might as well add my story to the mix. I was out with a few guys on the 198 and they pulled away early on. There was no way I was going to keep up and they would pull over after a while anyways. Well my buddy went down on a turn, but he is lucky to come away with only some minimal road rash. Damage wasn’t too bad to his bike either, all things considered. I came up on him shortly after he went down, thankfully no cars were behind him at the time and the ones that did come up on him stopped to make sure he was alright. You never really come to grasp what it’s like til you’re there or watch someone else take that fall. Be careful out there guys.

Yeah, I had a friend dump his bike on the 198 a couple years ago and I almost hit him. Definatley not fun watching a friend go down. Why did he go down?

He entered the turn a bit fast and drifted too far to the outside, which caused him to lose traction on some gravel. Had he leaned a little more I think he would have had it but at that point he didn’t want to take the turn that fast so he tried slowing up. But it was too late then and he ran into the gravel.

edit- While it was scary to see that happen it’s something I’ve learned from now and definitely something he’ll learn from too. Accidents are going to happen but the more you learn from your mistakes and the mistakes of others, the better prepared you’ll be when riding.

you guys should ride with more experienced riders that dont mind riding with beginners…you can learn alot from guys who have been riding for a while…Im pretty sure were going out tomorrow i dont think goff or tim would mind if u joined up with us…  
be careful guys this is not a good start to the season so far…
