Default Local rider died last night

One of the people I have ridden with in the past died in an accident last night. She was parked on the side of the road at a corner talking on her phone, and a school bus making a right hand turn knocked her over, pinned her under the bike and stopped on top of the bike with its rear wheels. She was on the phone with her kids at the time, and the bus was also full. The driver has been caharged with vehicluar manslaughter.

Not a good situation.

SFC Russel was also my BNCOC instructor

wow sorry to hear, my father's good friend lost his 31 year old last week after he was run over on his motorcycle. I still don't have all the details of the accident. Be careful out there folks!
