RIP Rider and brother
Lost one of our own today.
Got hit yesterday, pickup following a semi made a left turn in front of him. He sustained a broken jaw, 5 broken ribs, fractured wrist, broken forearm, fractured pelvis, and had bleeding from his brain. He was life flighted to Fargo, and passed this morning. He was a father of a baby girl, a soldier, and an instructor at the Regional Training Site in ND. He was 35 years young. He will be missed. |

Damn. Every time I hear about something like this, I can't help thinking about how fast it can happen. One minute you're cruising along, enjoying the ride, and the next minute you're just gone. It's a really sobering concept.
I hope he has found peace, and my thoughts are with those close to him. Also, perhaps prematurely, do we know what kind of helmet he was wearing?

RIP
I watched a rider turn at an intersection turn and when he was clearly starting down the road a car cut in front of him and I'm pretty sure they seen him. This rider braked hard and got stopped. It can happen way to quick. James
