Motorcycle rider protection and stuff

I'm sure many of you remember this but since we are on the topic of bikes and safety I'll go ahead and tell my story.

I was over at a friends and we left to grand some food for the grill. He had been on two wheels since he could walk. Raced flat track as a kid then got a street bike at 19. The kid was on a bike at least twice a month for years besides in the winter. We pulled onto a main road and he felt like having some fun so he got into it. Probably 115 mph. No cars around so he was just having a blast. He slowed down for a turn and got back into it. 100 feet after the turn hit a piece of small debre. Bike started to wobble bad. He lost control and went into the median hitting a light pole and snapping a small tree in half. When I got to him I told my friend not to bother calling an ambulance just call the cops. They said the speedo on his bike was stuck at 110. I can tell you I'm not a fan of seeing a body that has hit a tree and light pole going 110 miles an hour.

The accident happened on April 12 and Tyler was getting ready to turn 23. That night changed the way I look at motorcycles and speed forever. I do not care how long and straight the road is or how few cars are on a road.

There is not a thing you can do to change the way others drive but you can deffinAtly keep yourself from becoming another story for someone to tell.
