Wait, you're saying the son died following a [thankfully edited-out] crash. I thought I was watching a Jerry of the Day (fun follow that shows hilarious but non-injurious ski crashes) offering, Very sad

That's sad as hell, but if there's a silver lining it's that he died doing something he loved.Originally posted by clackamascoug View PostOne of my friends at the pool - lost his son in a skiing accident in France this past week. With discreet editing of the finality - you can see through the helmet cam the difficulties he was experiencing.
Only sharing because it is most interesting.

People tell me I'm crazy for riding a motorcycle, because it's so dangerous. Of course it's dangerous. I know it's dangerous, but who cares? When it warms up, I'm going to start riding again, and if I die on my bike, I'm fine. Life isn't precious enough that we should sacrifice excitement for longevity.Originally posted by BigPiney View Post

Get an R1200RT and you won't have to wait for it to warm up. I ride as long as it is dry.Originally posted by Non Sequitur View Post

I just googled it. It looks like a fun bike, but God wants me to be a cruiser guy. He won't let me consider anything else.Originally posted by Copelius View Post

I was until my carpal tunnel couldn't handle the Harley's stiff clutch when I decided to get back into biking a couple years ago. I have crossed over.Originally posted by Non Sequitur View Post

This should go in a Putin is an Evil and Murderous Tyrant thread. Alexey Navalny. This grieves me greatly as he was a very brave and outspoken critic of Putin. If you haven't watched Navalny (I think on MAX or Prime), you should do so. It essentially proves that Putin is a murderer, as if more proof were needed. Hopefully, this will motivate more protests, not silence.

Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.
