Thanks for sharing this Duc2V4. We think we're vulnerable on motorcycles, and we are, but replace the leather, back protector, and ballistic armor with Lycra to see what vulnerable is. Best thoughts for Nicky.

We kid ourselves with " leather, back protector, and ballistic armor";

it merely adds a layer of protection but by no means is it a Superman suit.

 

I cycle a lot, at speed (yes in Lycra; I will spare yours the pictures...) and am fully aware of the consquences.  In the end, it is down to being a lucky person in a bad situation.

 

 

Me and redlsut's collision with that car could have ended dramatically differently had the impact been at a different angle/location/speed.

 

 

We roll the dice folks, every time we wake up in the morning.

 

 

 

 

Go Nicky, go fight!!!!

I was shocked to read this news, and just can say that Honda do not have the luck whit them whit their riders.... First McGuinness crash in in the NW200 practice at high speed on the new fireblade and now Nicky has a bicycle crash whit dramatic following. Hope he has better luck that cyclist Burry Stander! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burry_Stander

Thank you Miguel for zapping the other thread, you are why VFRD is special.

 

Once again, hope Nicky survives this accident.

About 30 minutes ago the AP reported:

 

"The Maurizio Bufalini Hospital has announced that American motorcycle racer Nicky Hayden has died, five days after being hit by a car while training on his bicycle. Hayden was 35."

 

Damn
