Two friends of mine met me in Chapel Hill today to ride a little in the Triangle. Kind of a celebration for warmer weather and to see my bikes newest mods. Well we've just left IHOP on Capitol Blvd and we're heading to S. Saunders to connect with I-40. We come up on a scene with police cars and a fire engine. They're re-routing traffic, but as we wait one of the police officers drives up to us and tells us.
"Be careful today guys, a guy on a crotch rocket just hit a car doing 75mph in a 35mph zone. The guy flew 175 feet and was dead before he hit the ground"
This was a messed up ending to an otherwise uneventful day. As the officer was driving away I looked at my buddies and told them, we witnessed this for a reason. I also told them to take it slow going back to Greensboro & Winston-Salem.
This kind of shuck me a little because I think I may have seen the guy drive by IHOP while eating just before the incident occured. So fellas remember when you get on that 2-wheeled rocket, remember those you'll leave behind if things go wrong. It shines new light on something alot of times we take for granted....LIFE!!!
Be blessed and I have to get a prayer up for my h.org fam and all riders in general.
Peace.
