3 mile ride

Taking the MSF course likely would have saved him. Very sad

Yeah I had read that somewhere too. Should have had training and probably started out on a smaller lighter bike too. Very sad.

I think that story was reported internationally before it turned up in the news in the USA. Its a very sad story, but like his son said, Dad got to go out with the hugest smile on his face!!!! Small consolation, and yes a few laps around the supermarket carpark might have helped. Anyway - there are worse ways to check out eh.
