ya my prays are with you

Yea.... i had to deal with the same thing about 2 months ago when me and some friends were riding the twisties out in the hill country when two of the guys were taking the turns the oppisite of one another when one was too low on the turn and went head on with the other... i saw the whole thing in front of me. Both died instantly

Something ill never forget

Its crzy to think that stuff like that can happen in a snap.. The only thing i can think of is when its a persons time, its there time..

Its just not fair when people arnt even F8cking around and doing things by the book and still get hurt.. sucks..

i agree...

on a motorcycle theres no sheetmetal or engine in front of you , you ARE the crumplezone and usually on the wrong end of the stick when trouble strikes .
in my younger days i took some lessons for my motorlicence but now that i have my carlicence i never go back

What weird terms..but your right.. crumple zone... makes you wonder if it would be worse to live threw it..
