“I always wondered what he thought when he saw a bear coming in airborne”

Prolly what most of us would be thinking/saying.... Oh Shiite.... evasive maneuver.

“Great story! Hope it isn’t true!”

Had me ROTFLMAO when I first read it.

I’ve heard about “Bear in the air” but never so literally.

Prayers up for this Patriot and Great Man. Prayers up for him and his family.

Praying for his speedy healing and quick return to fighting the good fight against demon-rats, swamp-rats, and other evils.

I drove through Waco in late Feb - it was a hot mess. Lane closures trigger land changes.

Nobody seems to be taking about the person driving the car that cut him off. Do you suppose it was on purpose?

Given all the things going on and the fact that it was a publicly announced event, I have to wonder.

Then there was that kid in Breaking Bad who got shot dead because he was wandering around the hinterlands on a dirt bike.

When I was 10 our cousins gave us two old “Whizzer” motors.

When you're 10 a Whizzer is pretty darn cool.

When I was 13 we went to Daytona Beach and my parents rented a 50cc Honda scooter for 1/2 hour to ride on the beach. Really not much more than a Whizzer. But I was hooked from that day on.

I've moved up a little since then.......

Disclaimer: 95% of my riding miles are on country roads. I don't drink when I ride, I train regularly, I don't ride at night (deer!!). And I don't use my bike to show how large my testicles are. I am seriously AGATT. If I lived in an urban area I'd be a cager.

Reminds me of my wife and I trip driving from
Dallas to san antonio couple years ago

Someone dumped a 20’ extension ladder on
Interstate in front of us, almost caused huge
Wreck, tractor trailer went right over it, almost
Lost control.
later on, some idiot dumped a pallet
On the highway again right in front of us.
another near wreck.

We decided someone was telling us:
Dont drive south of dallas
