It doesn’t matter how much experience you have, if you are going to speed your chances of death on a public road go up ALOT, we all know how shitty the NYS roads are with potholes, bumps and uneven pavement, hitting any of those at a high speed isn’t going to end well whether you have been riding for 10 min or 10 years. The only thing the experienced rider has is a slight chance of recovery if he has a minor head shake, other then that pretty much game over.

One thing is even with all these wrecks I will still continue to ride, but I will also ride in my comfort zone, most of these kids are the same ones who speed while weaving in and out traffic because they think they’re cool and invincible. Either way it always sucks to hear about a down rider but it doesn’t matter how many go down it won’t change the way people ride, age + maturity will.

^ this.

Its not so much riding above your ability as it is riding below a sensible IQ level. The most talented rider in the world can still double or triple the speed limit and have someone waiting to pull out who sees them coming but doesn’t realize how fast they are moving pull out in front of them.
