my guess is the bike came off the on-ramp too fast and clipped the truck making them both wreck. could easily have been the other way though

it was posted on another forum I'm on and the first things people started saying about how crotch rocket riders are so wreckless weaving through traffic and all young etc.. in MD you are required to wear a helmet so I questioned them on how they knew the riders were young and they got upset.

I pointed out that two guys i work with that right sportbikes are in their late 40's if not early 50's

I made a simple statement that most riders are responsible but a few bad apples are all anyone remembers.

man that ticked me off.

Yeah no doubt,, its not a freaking stereotype,, Some people just need to get with the program and stop blaming people based upon what they drive/ride.. its the same thing in the cage world,, with tuner cars, it will never end

That's terrible regardless of whose fault it was. It's not such big news when a cage does it, go figure!
