My Friend was Killed in a Motorcycle Accident Tonight...

[norton9478]

I just got a starter 250)... This shit is scary.

 

[Comrade Porn King Mikhail]

My condolences man. I've had a couple of people I know get seriously injured, one losing a leg. People just don't look out on the road for bikes.

 

[bemanicho1]

I'm sorry. That's horrible. My mom hates any type of motor bikes, since they're so dangerous. My uncle died while riding a motorcycle a while back.

 

[Murray]

That really sucks man. I lost a good friend to a motorcycle accident a few years ago. People wonder why I'm so anti-motorcycle sometimes. It's because everyone I know that has one has either wrecked or been killed on it.

 

[NeoSneth]

I always wear a helmet.
partially because this state makes me, but there are so many other reasons.

My brother's friend lost an entire arm....but he was not being a responsible driver.

 

[NeoGeoSaint]

sorry to hear about your friend. I have always disliked motorcycles because all it takes is an accident and then your gone. One of my friends was also killed this way a few years back. May your friend rest in peace.

 

[Tarma]

Sorry for your loss Mike...

 

[racecar]

sorry to hear about that... too many young people these todays driving too fast..

 

[Rade K]

Terrible news.

I have my license, I have some gear, but I've never bothered with the actual vehicle. I'm always being scared off persuing it due to stories like this. The thrill of riding on a motorcycle is not enough to dampen the stories of injury, paralysis and death.

 

[Xian Xi]

Damn man, sorry to hear that. When I used to ride I always used my helmet and had to yell at people to use theirs. Sounds like his life was just starting out.

 

[SniperElite]

I am so very sorry for your loss brother! You and yours will be in my thoughts and prayers!

 

[neo_mao]

I also know someone seriously injured while riding. it's crazy, almost everyone knows someone killed or injured in a bike accident...scary.

very sad news, condolences to you, family and friends

The thrill of riding on a motorcycle is not enough to dampen the stories of injury, paralysis and death.

If you know your shit on a bike and act RESPONSIBLE, then you'll probably never get in an accident. But whenever you start to speed dangerously beyond your limit or hotdog it, you need to realize the consequences of a few minutes of fun. Apparently that's what happened to Tonk's friend, and a lot of other young men in over their head.


Don't let stories of motorcycle accidents disparage you from ever getting on one...that'd be like hearing stories of train/car/airplane/space shuttle accidents and thinking to yourself "No way am I ever getting in one of those". Riding a bike and going 100 down the highway is one of the best feelings in the world...try it out sometime.

If you live past the first month of motorcycling then you should be straight as far as your skills are concerned.

 

[HeartlessNinny]

Shitty news, man. Sorry to hear it.

 

[Average Joe]

That blows.

Sorry man.

You know where I am.

Absolutely boggles my mind how someone can ride a motorcycle and not wear a helmet.

Judging by those pics doesn't look like wearing one would have even done anything though...

My condolences Tonk..

 

[ki_atsushi]

Wow, Mike. Sorry to hear of your loss.

Again you have my condolences.

 

[Dio Brando]

I'm so sorry, dude. My condolences to his family, as well.

 

[Jedah Doma]

Man TonK, sorry to hear about this. Here your other friend gets out of the hospital after that medical emergency, and now this happens. The family will be in our prayers no doubt.

 

[Plisken]

sorry to hear about this, Mike.

 

[TonK]

Thanks guys.

Look at the fucked up comments this one guy is leaving: http://www.vindy.com/news/2010/jun/13/boardman-man-dies-township-motorcycle-accident/

 

[DangerousK]

Sorry to hear about this Mike. I hope his family gets through this as best as they can. There isn't ever something easy about this.

I looked through those comments and that guy is a bit over the top with the "deserved to die" shit.

I don't know, this is a touchy subject for me because I've had friends killed/injured on bikes in similar circumstances. When you aren't riding smart, you put yourself at a lot of risks on the road and unfortunately the potential consequences are never good ones. I won't get on a bike any longer because of the stuff I've seen happen.

 

[NeoSneth]

any time a young driver dies, those posts show up on the news website.

i see the exact same arguments every time.

 

[Taiso]

Just adding my condolences to everyone else's, TonK. I'm very sorry to hear you lost a valued person in your life. It's never easy. Stay strong.

 

[Heath]

My friend & another died instantly when they took a army Land Rover while drunk and crashed it through a wall 8 years ago.Nobody said they deserved it because they were drunk.think its irelevant how someone dies and it should be human fucking decency to keep comments like that to yourself and have respect for the familys.it can happen to any of us.

Sorry for your loss Tonk
