I live in New tampa and on the corner of Fletcher and Bruce b downs, there was a large crowd gathered in the middle of busy Bruce b downs. I then saw a bike with the front wheel taken off and a young man laying on his back motionless. His face had roadrash all over it and he was dead as a door nail. There were cops that showed up but as I was stopped a fire fighter placed a cloth over his body to hide his face. Pretty sobering experiance to say the least. Be careful out there and watch out for each other.

Saw one of these a few years ago on I-49. There was about a 100 foot red skid mark, at the end of which was a woman wearing hazmat gear and holding up a big plastic bag of what I can only describe as human gristle.

Yep them motorcycle are a one an done usually even when it is not the driver's fault. I have known 4 people killed on motorcycles. Not worth the risk. Imho

While driving to dinner, I saw one being pulled out of a grill of an 18 wheeler. I almost lost my appetite, almost.

Until you have seen a human torso unwound out of the gears of a combine tractor, you don't know grisly. Not pretty.

Motorcycles are a self imposed form of population control I suppose
