Re: Rider Down
Either way, it's not a real safe stretch of road. Auto or bike, speed limit is 55, there is no where for a cop to "hide" and run radar so there's no deterrent for anyone to do the speed limit, and there are two campgrounds with pull outs w/o a light and trees in the median so people unfamiliar with the area (tourists vacationing, etc.) get stuck in the middle of the intersection/cut people off on accident all the time.

Re: Rider Down
I saw this crash yesterday!! i didnt see it happen but i was heading back to Sandbridge and im still a lil shaky about it but the rider def didnt make it. he was still in the middle of the road with a white blanket over him. their was blood spots showing on that blanket. thats why im still like shaky. and it sucked cuz traffic was really really slow and then it stopped and i happen to be right beside him except on the other side of the median soo i couldnt help but look.
To all riders out there! People who drive cars dont give me a shit about bikers. Ive seen this soo many times where a car is right on a bikers ass on the road. thats messed up. It pisses me off! >:0
Keep a lookout on ur surroundings!
RIP and prayers to the family and friends

My wife and I had a discussion about who might really be to blame and quickly decided its just a terrible mishap for everyone involved.
I could only shake my head when I heard/saw bikes speeding (some well in excess of the limit) all day long today.

Re: Rider Down
The victim was my close friend Josh who posted here as "Sintari". He was a very friendly and sociable guy, so there's a good chance some of you have talked to him before. check his myspace for his photos.

I'm glad someone saw it happen because I was in disbelief of the media where they said he was traveling in excessive speed because they always blow it up for a sport bike accident.
