Co-worker killed this morning
Man... what a way to start your day. This father of three was riding into work this morning not even a mile from work and this guy in a F-150 runs a red light and kills this man. There are alot of us that ride where I work and it was a very sombering day today. One of my friends was at least with him when he took his last breath while the guy that killed him stood outside his truck on the phone. Hope that guy rots in prison. Not only did he ruin his life he wrecked a happy family forever. Really was a gut check this morning. When I ride to work I go through that very intersection. You guys ride safe out there and just remember this poor family in your thoughts and prayers. Thanks guys/gals...

Real sorry to hear that, Man. I'll meditate and pray for him and his family.
I can see a picture, in my mind, of this cager talking on the phone prior and during the accident as well. I see it more and more. I don't understand how folks can really expect to handle dynamic traffic situations while distracted.

F*CKIN CAGERS I am sorry to hear that. I too hope that guy rots in jail for the rest of his life. If he don't get a stiff sentence maybe you and the guys at work should give him one. I will pray for his family. I am so sorry for his children who have been ripped of from havin thier dad around. While the a$$hole in the truck will be here for his kids. And people who don't ride just see him as another dead biker. But he is our BROTHER and he will ride with all of us forever.
