One should not cast a Schwinn before a shrine.

"Magnussen says mental issues may be involved in why the 42-year-old Wenatchee man tossed the bike.

No kidding. He must have been a liberal.

Rules, there are rules. Don’t they apply for the women as well? :-)

Yeah I would think you have a few mental issues if you try to crash a motorcyclist.

I'm just a bicyclist with around 50,000 miles under my belt, but I've been pretty lucky. I've only had a small handful of people look right at me and then try to kill me, whether it's road rage or just plain old ignorance, if you're on two wheels and expect others to watch out for you or see you or tolerate you, you ain't gonna live very long.

My cousin just had a horrific motorcycle accident a few days ago. Compound fractures of every bone in both legs. We’ll find out in a week or so if he gets to keep them. If he does, the docs aren’t optimistic about him ever walking again.

I’m so glad my husband sold his Harley a year ago. The stress was killing me.

I am proud to say that in all my years of over imbibing, I have not once hurled a bicycle.

Hate to see this happen to an obscure actor. Hope he is ok none the less. At least he gets some press.

The first time James Caviezel signed on to play Jesus Christ, it was in Mel Gibson's controversial "The Passion of the Christ," and it didn't seem too surprising of a choice. Caviezel was a talented, devout Catholic actor of about the right age and initials to play the Messiah, so the eyebrow-raising was kept to a minimum. ...

Don't forget, he was struck by lighting on the crucifix while filming “the Passion”

Check out his new flick “Outlander.” Not a bad sci-fi flick that went straight to video. WELL worth a rental.

Didn’t this guy get struck by lightning during the filming of Passion?

The trooper says he doesn't know why the actor was in the area about 14 miles southeast of this city in north-central Washington.

Because he chose to ride his bike there, you ignorant pig. It still is a free country.

James Caviezel as the Count of Monte Cristo

One of my favorite movies.

This is America, and you can do what you like. Having said that I just lost a friend to a motorcycle wreck. Not even his fault. Driver crossed the line on a two lane. Head on, he flew 40 yards past the car, breaking his neck and killing him instantly on impact. His wife was on board, too. She suffered 2 broken legs and a shattered pelvis. They have 2 teenaged kids. He was a good guy and a 17 year law enforcement vet. His loss has left a open wound in our agency. I understand life itself is intrinsically dangerous, but some things people do I never will understand.
