Here is a photo of the bridge...the center section (drawbridge) has a metal grated surface. This bridge is never a place to be anything but very careful on two wheels...

Sometimes there is no food for though, and sometimes there si starvation of the brain. Last year a wheelie was done is South Florida and a woman was killed when she walked in front of the biker.

I'm not quite sure I understand your point, but she was a pedestrian on the sidewalk and was crashed into by a riderless bike.

It is hard to see a bike at night that is doing a wheelie. The headlight is pointing into the sky.

Such a shame and so senseless. This is the kind of story that you hate seeing. Someone innocent being killed by someone else's stupidity. Gives all Sportbike riders a bad name. The worse thing that could happen to that rider would be to live and have to live with knowing what he had done.

The rider survived so he will have to live with it and a lot of other pain too

I don't ride with 'stunters'. In my opinion, they're pushing the edge of an envelope named 'disaster'.

Every time we ride, anyway, we're defying the forces of nature. Stunters take that 100x further.

For any of my brothers on the board who enjoy that type of riding, rest assured...I'm not hatin'...I'm just sayin'.

Imagine if that 50y/o woman had been our mother or sister.
