Christopher J. Marchewka, 29, was riding his motorcycle near Big Tree and Woodchuck Roads with his passenger, 29-year-old Maureen A. O’Grady. Marchewka lost control of the bike and hit the guard rail.
Saw the Sheriff stop out to a house in Alden earlier this morning that usually has quite a few bikers. In this case I’m hoping it was a warrant rather than …bad news.
Be Safe!
<EDIT>
Just found out it was the guy across the street from my fiancee.
Were the circumstances even related? Unless you’re referring to the lesson of “don’t die when you crash”, then yeah I guess they didn’t learn anything.
i’ve noticed that bike accidents always happen at the beginning of the summer each year. maybe bikers forgot how to ride them from the long winter break.
Not that they forget to ride them, I think much of the issue is that they are overly anxious to get out, forget to self-check, ride within limits, etc.
I am not against them. It sometimes provides you as a little reminder that this could be anyone of us in these articles. After the one Tuesday, I definitely have a little more hesitation to my riding.
