Jan 1, 2012 - I have been riding on the back since I was 8 but on my own when I turned 50. It's amazing to me the ignorance of who we all are for the most part. Simply because we are on two wheels we are all meth heads or drunks or trash or whatever. I am a college educated businesswoman, a mother and grandmother for gods sake but I have had things thrown at me while riding yelled at flipped off. Why? All because I am on two wheels? THAT is ignorance plain and simple
Oct 5, 2011 - Ruben,
Wife and I got hit April of 2010, putting me in a helicopter with a shattered pelvis and knee, and the wife in an ambulance with multiple internal injuries. All from someone cutting the curve on the inside. While we both recovered and ride again, it haunts us daily. You have my respect as a rider my friend, God was on your shoulder. I hope one day the bitch that hit you gets his/hers in the end. Props my friend. Be safe.
Jul 29, 2011 - the problem is the licenses are given out like chocolate here in the US. you can take the test in 8 languages here. Sorry, ENGLISH only IMHO. there are SO many people who shouldn't be driving. And the consequences for things like you accident, and even mine, the drivers just drive off.. mine at least asked if i was ok, then got back in his van and drove off. didn't matter i could barely move my left leg much less if my bike was even mobile.
THEY just don't care. I'm moving to Antarctica.
Jul 29, 2011 - Rueben,
i ride a 05 Yamaha Roadstar, here in LA and surrounding areas. many times in 06 and 07 i took that exit from the 10.had a full time job in Santa Monica. it's an extremely dangerous exit. i've seen so many A-hole's do stuff like what happened to you. Riding the freeways isn't any better. I ate the side of a minivan on the 5 this Wednesday. luckily, i braked fast enough to slide into him sideways. i actually didn't go down. miraculous. didn't break a thing..bent some stuff. sore as hell.
Jul 27, 2011 - Dear Rueben, I wish to send you all my love and respects to you and your family for continued healing...for your suffering has left its toll on your body, but not in your heart. This is very evident, with regard to your time and effort you put into this moving-beautiful video of your tragic day. Im very touched by the soulful song you choose. I am a blues drummer, love Eric B! Can I help out in anyway? Please feel free to ask, I work as a Flat Track Motorcycle racing photographer...God Bless U-2
May 7, 2011 - just no words to express,im sharing this vid everyone should see videos like this to open their eyes,im glad you had the courage to make this video
Jan 29, 2011 - Best wishes for a bighter future for you and your family from a Harley Rider in England .
I hope the person who caused you so much pain see's this video .
Jan 28, 2011 - Wow, this is one of the few videos really worth remembering. It touched me deeply and opened my eyes further to what may happen to me when I ride. I wish to extend my respect for the strength to endure all that you've been put through. I really wish you the best.
I hope that guilt tears apart the bastard who did this to you and that your video touches the heart of at least one potential road-killer.
Dec 4, 2010 - What a fucking dick, people that hit and run are cunts, and what he did, I hope he fucking ends up in hell, if i ever see this I will literally chase the driver and open his door and punch the shit out of him, I'm planning to get a BMW R1200GS Adventure, and idiots that have no respect for the motorcyclists, I fucking hate dicks that do that, and I feel ever so sorry for you, I hope that idiot pays for what he has done
Oct 25, 2010 - Drivers wonder why I go totally mental at them when they do something selfishly thoughtless and dumb while Im riding or if I am driving and I see them putting another riders life at risk, this is why.........
good luck to you buddy, youve got lots around you who obviously love and care for you, take care
Oct 3, 2010 - very sad! how can anyone just hit someone and leave them for dead is beyond me. my mom was in a incident where she was walking and someone hit her and left her in a ditch to die thankfully she's doing well and did not die and is doing fine! my heart goes out to you man wish you the best
Oct 3, 2010 - I found your video today and as i ride as well it was very very educational and i will forward on to our Biker grtoup here in Ausstralia to watch .....thank you ever so much and i wish you a million Angel Hugs ........xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
