 Just me, but I always felt I had an obligation to not take any chances when carrying a passenger.

| Shredder  | I have seen less damage on a truck when it hits a telephone pole. That had to be a messy and sad scene. RIP to the riders and speedy recovery to the injured. Last edited by Mrmat25; 07-28-2012 at 06:35 PM.. |

Two people are injured, one very seriously. It's not very productive to wonder if anyone will learn anything from this. Some already know better and it will not stay in the memory of others for very long. Say a prayer for the families of those affected and thank the Lord for our first responders. |

Ironically the idiot rider studied "Funeral Services"... go figure. This is the kind of thing that angers me more than any "Cager" doing something stupid... especially from a guy who's in his mid 30's... What a horrible thing for her parents to know their daughter was killed this way by this moron.. | |

| Licensed  Joined: Jun 2007 From: Tigard I Ride: 02 R6 | May Heaven have a special place for her, that God gives her a chance to watch her children,,,cause this was an idiots fault. May she RIP, Bikes are cool for all, but the reality of when you put others in harms risk .... You must ride with the thought of protecting them at all costs means to ride very conservatively. Every time. He rode stupid with a women who had the right to her life and times ahead. So damn SAD ! |

| Newbie Joined: Jul 2012 From: SW Portland, Oregon | Just thinking...this is one of those that really sucks. Reckless riding on your own is one thing, but when you're two-up, it's not the time for that. This was a 24-year-old mom of three that is no longer around for her children. That sucks beyond sucking. Damn. That is all.  |

| Newbie Joined: Jul 2012 From: Beaverton |  To All the People with Responses. I have honestly stumbled upon this forum by accident and what I saw has made me sick to my stomach. Some of you people with so much anger towards this issue. I know both of the deceased. Most importantly I know the friends of both of them, I hand out with them on a fluent basis. And just looking at some of the messed up crap some of you have said just makes me angry and speechless. What you haven't payed attention to is the fact that Keith has two children and the girl has 3 children. What you don't know is that the girls kids and parents were on a camping trip when this all happened. And now they have been notified just because they showed up yesterday. Keith was a great rider, for some reason unknown Keith felt he had a decent good distance to over take two vehicles. Don't turn this around people, anyone of us have tried to pass another vehicle. We were just lucky that no other vehicles came out of nowhere. It could have easily happened to any of us on a random day. The worst part of it all is that he wasn't too far away from his destination. To the kid that said "body parts were everywhere"! Stop being soo dramatic, just because you said that gives me more belief that your a drama queen/king. Her body parts were not decapitated in anyway, she snapped her neck on impact, and he was found mangled in a bush. They almost ruled it as a three person wreck until they found him. But keep in mind, the only reason I'm posting in here, is to specifically set the damn record straight. And the families and friends are having a really really hard time with this right now. My best-friend was just hanging out with the kids of the deceased last night, and they both have a daughter named Emma. My friend was in tears soo bad last night because the kids had absolutely NO clue what had just happened. It is really truly a scary situation, For any of you riders, You can also be just as experienced at riding a bike like even he was. But you have no control over your life. You take chances everyday. So this could be you at anytime. Think what if the breaks go out, a rod goes out, anything can happen expectantly. So don't pretend that this happened all because of Keith..... It very well could have been because of him, but don't rule out other possibilities. " STOP THINKING, THIS WON'T HAPPEN TO ME, I'm SMARTER THAN THAT " I'm sure that was also going through his mind as well... And for the record people... THAT message on Facebook...... IT was sent over two weeks prior to the incident. So don't place them together hand and hand and turn it into a negative thing. |
