So far this year, I’ve seen on Facebook /riding groups several people go down, and a few have died. Lots of distracted driving now, more than ever in my gut feeling, just makes me on edge most of the time riding in the street.
Sucks man.

It’s nuts. He was on his way to my house when it happened, too, so his wife blames me. We will never know why it happened. He was an experienced rider and went off a minor curve into a shallow ditch, then rode about 50 feet of 2” pipe fence along the horse farm up the road. It’s lovely driving by the spot every time I go to town. I picked up the orange flags marking the route after 5 days and threw them in the first dumpster I saw.
