Saw someone die on a crotch rocket a little while ago.

I had to hurl after EMS arrived. Motorcycles are dumb af.

How did it happen?


Nov 2, 2018, 2:29 PM

And yes I also think they are dumb AF. I’ll take my steel frame 4,600 pound vehicle w seat belts for protection over a bike.

I used to own a motorcyle (HD Softtail Deuce) and loved

riding. I gave it up after a close friend got killed on one because the other driver didn't see him. Not worth the risk, especially with the $hitty drivers on the roads these days.

I grew up riding. Girl pulled out in front of me in Clemson


Nov 2, 2018, 3:44 PM

at the entrance to univeristy ridge. I was coming up from downtown and she was in a gold Honda Accord. She looked at me, looked the other way and looked at me again.........and pulled right out in front of me.

I anticipated so was not going fast, I laid it down on the street and stepped off. Broke the motor mount where the crash bar mounted.

Last time I was ever on a motorcycle.

That would have been 1987-88

two years later a good friend died in a one bike accident.

similarly, i rode a dirt bike for the first time in my life


Nov 2, 2018, 2:44 PM

3 weeks ago. I'm 31. I got too comfortable too quick. I was turning around and gonna go get my wife to ride with me, got going a little too fast and instincts of riding a bike (right side hand brake is rear brake on bike its the FRONT brake on the dirt bike). I went flying over the handle bars at 20+ miles an hour. Hit and hurt my head, shoulder, hip, ankle, and pride. I am very lucky i didnt break my hip. i'm very sore still. mainly, it made me realize A. motorized 2 wheel vehicles are stupid and B. i'm getting old and things hurt worse and for longer periods of time nowadays

Eff that man. I am always scared when I see one being an idiot and riding between 80mph traffic and cutting in and out. I always think I am going to see the same.

Helmet off = closed casket
Helmet on = open casket

That’s how I feel about motorcycles.

Nov 2, 2018, 4:42 PM

It wasn't me!

That said, my bike is at my friend's house and finally going to start getting it repaired over the winter.

A crotch rocket fits your MO. Small penizz and low self esteem. You probably troll Broughton High school or Crabtree Valley on the weekends.

watched a motorcycle wreck myself Tuesday.


Nov 2, 2018, 5:59 PM

I was traveling 60 in a 45 which is standard. he passed me and went down a hill out of my sight. I topped the hill heading down just in time to see him approaching just moving traffic to fast. He brake checked himself and down he and the bike went. he was flipping snd sliding across the ground as was his bike. he got up and ran to his bike which had slid probably 100 feet more. another motorist and myself stopped, picked his bike up. I asked do you need an ambulance are you ok. His clothes were shredded but I didn't see any blood. He just looked at me and said I dont know. Amazingly he nor his bike hit anything else.
