I've never been on one...and never will.I value my life too much.
Gary is a good friend of mine and it's a miracle he survived. He and part of his bike ended up under the truck and his wife was thrown over the truck and into oncoming traffic where she was killed instantly.
Gary spent about a month in a coma and has undergone many surgeries to put his body back together. He lost sight in one eye but is back playing senior softball....
I know three people who have one leg shorter than the other due to motorcycle accidents. I have a relative who is a vegetable due to thinking he could turn on to a road before a car got there. I have another relative who suddenly stopped riding his when he had too many "what if" moments.
On the lighter side, when I was in high school I saw a friend of Sonny Barger try a wheelie from a stop and ended up on his back without his motorcycle. It was hard not to laugh, but I didn't want to die young.
