Last weekend we had a pretty tragic accident out in the hill country down here in San Antonio.  I just learned of this today, but two very experienced riders hit head on and were both killed instantly.  I knew one of the riders, not very well, but enough to really hit home.  This just goes to show you never know, and I just want it to be a reminder of the unexpected things that can happen on the street.  Be safe and keep it shiny side up gentlemen.

That is a tragic story.

Late last year a guy I rode with crossed the double yellow and met a truck head on. Bad things lay beyond the double yellow. Ride safe.
