Very sad. Old guys on Harleys have a high mortality rate.

37:1 odds ratio for mortality, per mile driven,
relative to passenger cars (NTSB stats 2007)
Driving a bike requires all your attention because

What is it with Obama and Biden with their motorcade accidents. I’m sure they must have happened with other administrations, but wow, nothing like those two!

We had a motorcycle cop in the motorcade that was killed when Bush was here (Hawaii).

“by Associated Presss & KGW Staff”

Anyone notice that, underneath the title? It’s like the guy who reported about it is PO’d about being part of the AP.

if he was unemployed, then the unemployment rate just decreased. if he was employed, then it’s a job “created”. either way, the obamites will claim credit.
