Wonder if the rider was wearing a helmet? Don't understand why
motorcycle riders think they are special...how many would still be
here today if they would have had a helmet on? ALOT!
Hope they had it on

Well now; all the macho riders choose to ride with or without a bump hat. That's not mentioned in the article, BTW. Regardless, I wish the rider a speedy recovery, and hope that he/she is able to get on the road again ASAP. Now, we can all go back to sipping our coffee and solving problems of the world.
