I was driving down the highway following a group of bikes when one of them inexplicably veered off the highway and then she went ass of tea kettle and was flung into a telephone pole. Luckily, we were only a few miles from a hospital and the ambulance got there in minutes. She had lots of internal injuries and some broken bones.

Still don't know why she went off the road. The road was straight, she wasn't speeding and nothing in the road.

Motorcycle use, particulary in that fashion and/or not riding with a helmet was addressed by Sir Charles Darwin in the 19th Century...

Know a lot fewer mangled combat chopper pilots and crew than bike riders.

We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

Funny, I just talked to a friend of mine over coffee this morning - he's trying to sell the horses. Hasn't ridden since he got bucked off one last year and damn near broke his neck.. He's now tryin' to buy a Road King.

Keep in mind a rider has FULL control of a motorcycle.. A rider has only minor control of a horse - and if that oat-burner decides to take off/get rid of you, he's gonna DO IT and no amount of reining in will stop him..

Uh uh.. I'll stay on two wheels.. Last horse I rode was about 50 years ago and you won't find my fat azz on another one, EVER...
