Even riding facing traffic you're still not safe. Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Mr.Puss Posted May 17, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted May 17, 2017 That's a shame. In my experience in Italian traffic, no matter what speed everyone is going, its nuts. Crush your enemies. See them driven before you. Hear the lamentations of their women. Fuss Life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 2wheeler Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 So sad, and so young!!! It blows my mind how guys like Nicky Hayden who have done so many insane things which could have killed him many time over, gets taken out in a bicycle wreck. Same thing happened to Jim Pomeroy (1st American to win a World GP of motocross) with him getting killed in a jeep wreck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faffi Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 RIP, Nicky Sometimes, freak accidents unfortunately happen even to people who risk their lives on a daily basis. Randy Renfrow (famous for grafting a big toe to replace the thumb he lost in an accident so he could continue racing) survived a lot of serious accidents, but died when falling down the stairs at his parents house when recuperating from a big crash. Mike Hailwood died when a truck turned in front of his car when he was on an errand with his kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
