i lost my eldest brother to a no-fault bike accident, he 19, me 12. Helmet and gloves, he was crushed by a vehicle.

my sister is a top-lvl nurse. whenever she sees/meets a cyclist she has been known to say,"I'll C U in the ICU."

My kids know that I will not respond well to even the rumor of them sitting on a parked motorcycle.

I get it; mass to horsepower ratio, wind over your bald spot, freedom, sure, whatever.
But my friends who ride know I will not come visit them in hospital nor will I attend their services. Been there . .
