Saw a gnarly motorcycle crash today, just a reminder to be as safe as you can!
Nothing freaks me out more then a motorcycle accident... I've seen a couple in real life and they are NOT fun to look at...
Here's a video of what you SHOULDN'T do, EVER! He was on the autobahn, but still, that was pretty reckless.

Crashing at 140kph is NO joke, especially a crash like that!
Just be careful out there, rainy season is coming and I'd hate to see one of my i-club friends in a casket.
Damn, that crash freaks me out.

If I wasn't clear, I did NOT see that exact bike crash, I saw something completely different, but I linked to that crash to open up some eyes.
I heard about 3 moto wrecks this morning as I was putting on my gear. I hate that. The thing is, there are more motorcyclists now than ever (so it seems, would be interesting to actually know) and that means lots more new riders which is dangerous for everyone...

i sold my bike about three years ago after a self-caused crash.
its unfortunate sometimes it takes something tragic for people to learn ( myself included )
My crash consisted of my knee dragging on ground, rear wheel start hopping, standing the bike up in the opposite lane )blind corner) and almost hitting a pt cruiser head on =( dumped my bike and was to scared to ride afterwards, i think ill stick to my cage with a seat.
