Just wanted to apologize for my use of a naughty word on the banned list. I did not intend to upset anyone. However, I still have the same feelings... so, what I should have said is:
That is really sad... sorry for your friend.

I watched the news coverage as the LEOs, ambulances, fire trucks, etc. were on the scene. I, as a fellow rider, found myself glued to the TV. When I learned he had died I was crushed. Just didn't look like that bad a fall. Had to be one of those "hit just right" things. Very sad. Was glad to see that TV also covered a lot of the memorial(s) for him. My prayers are with the family and friends.
Since this was a one vehicle accident let is serve a purpose. Remember, LET"S BE CAREFUL OUT THERE!!!!!!

Very sorry for the loss of a fellow rider. Thank you for the reminder too. I sat here watching the rain pour down the other day and thought how thankful I was it was clearing the roads. I won't ride until it is clear too as I was on the back of my husbands when we almost lost it on sand/salt last year.

sorry to hear about your Pastor
I'll be getting my bike out of dealer storage on the 12th of March.....can't wait but also worried about the sand up here in New England that early! It will be my first spring on a bike as I bought my first bike last summer. I'll be taking it slow on the way home......but it will be good to have my bike in the garage for when I'm ready!!!!!!!!
Also sorry to hear about your friend.

A word of caution to all, although rains oftentimes do wash the sand off of the road it can also wash sand onto a road. I was coming around a blind corner 2 years ago after an evening of torrential rain and to my horror while fully into the corner I see sand had been broadcast into the road from the bank! I made it through without a problem but if I had been speeding and a car was coming around the bend heading towards me ( I had to take the corner wide) it may have been a different story. It was one of many close calls that caught me by surprise.
