Cruising up highway 9 yesterday, I saw a biker lying on the floor after apparently being hit by a car. I don't know the details of the accident, as I was turned around on the way down away from the accident.

My friend who was pulled over on highway 9 later last night was told that the accident was fatal and that the biker died. Condolences to whoever he might have left behind. For everyone else, please drive safely and carefully if you are to do any sort of spirited driving.

**EDIT: The accident was on 11/22

yeah, no cutting over the yellow you flat lander noobs.

 

1 reason I dont ride motorcycles anymore.

rip

 

Really!? just on track i guess.

My friend rides at night sometimes, i beg him not too...its kind of (or should be) a known rule that 2 wheels own the daylight, and 4 wheels can and only should be opened up at night. I cant believe the idiots i see in the mtns in pure daylight. ESPECIALLY WHTIOUT THEIR LIGHTS ON

The moment you hit turn 1 under shade of trees, your lights should be on 24/7

I only ride the Mtns in daylight

 

didn't see anything on barf yet. I'm sure it'll show up eventually.

 

damn thats sad..as a fellow rider I hate hearin stories like that

 

yea a girl I know got hit by a drunk driver on the 1 while she was riding her motorcycle. Scary, she was pretty fine too. 2 wheels=dangerous


Thought i'd add this happened at night.

 

always sad to hear about these kinda accident..as a former rider, i never rode at night, way to dangerous.

 

This was actually in broad daylight. It was 3:30 or so when we rolled up and saw the biker on the ground.

 

Its on there now - assuming it is the same accident. The guy was a well known BARF member.
