This is especially intended for new motorcylists. My nephew, Issac came
home from the army within the past year and excitedly bought a motorcycle.
He did the right thing by taking the MSF course and getting proper
equipment.
Issac's attention to the rural country road apparently drifted last Thursday
evening while coming home from a day's ride through the foothills of
California. He missed a turn and left the road. Issac was declared brain
dead at 1:30 this (Saturday) morning California time.
My plea for those who have friends and relatives who love them is to just
keep in mind that while motorcycles themselves are not inherently dangerous,
they, in conjunction with the road must be respected because the combination
of the two can and will kill you. Issac was 32 and leaves behind a young
wife, young children and many grieving friends and relatives.
.....please be safe.

My condolences, Russ. Thanks for taking the time in your grief to
think of other motorcyclists out there. I'm headed to West Virginia
tomorrow for an Italian Motorcycle Festival with my 18-year-old
daughter. I know I'll be even more careful than I usually am with
your experience still echoing in my mind.
Best in the future to you and your family.

I am sorry to hear of your loss. Thank you for posting this. Hopefully
it will carry some weight with everyone for even a little while and help
us to remember to ride safely.

If he's ex US-army, I suspect the actual time of brain death was some
years before the one stated.

Same state as you?
Good.
Now YOU do the honorable thing and drop dead into a pre-dug grave, you
cross posting freak.
My next door neighbor's (of ten + years) son, has wrecked 5 cars since
I knew them.
He is now 19, and "daddy" allowed him to buy a used Suzuki 600 cc
thingamabobrickyroadracer bike... red in color!
$10K was too much for that jackass to buy my Black'03 FLHT standard that
includes the leathers that would fit him perfectly, so he paid $7.8K for
a pretty red thing that sounds like a bee farting after it ate too much
liverwurst, beans, and prune juice.
Now?
He LOVES running up and down the streets at full throttle,
"practicing" Wheelies and Nosies!
He wears a full face helmet, that accompanies his _ short sleeved
T-shirt, Shorts, and sandles_(!!), and races on the city streets until
close to midnight to impress his 15 year old, 3'7" gothic female friend
that is covered with so many tattoes, that she would make a pedophile
from the hells angles wanna barf. >> Stay informed about: Please... |
