Just something to put into your mental substrata of your brainpan.  things like this help keep me grounded on earth, while yes i do play on the cloverleaf ramps, i no longer pass cars while doing it, i try to keep respectable around others on roadways.  if you cant handle Gore, or bloody stuff, skip this. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED

take a close look at that truck
Accelerate like your being chased, Corner like you mean it, Brake as if you life depends on it.
Ride Hard...or go home.

Its you Vs the pavement.....who wins today?

Man, that's not for the faint of heart. Or stomach for that matter. You see the dude's helmet in the grill?!  Geez.

:o  Looks like they hit the truck head-on or something.  The one with his head IN the pavement looks like a kid :(

In Holland there are also a lot of "cloverleaf racers". Every year a lot of deadly accidents happen on those cloverleafs because they are taken at insane speeds. Trucks and cars regularly spill Diesel fuel in the corners wich is very very slippery.  Also, the metal guard rails alongside the corners kill lots of motorcyclists. When they hit the rails, bodyparts are cut off by the metal poles on wich the rail is mounted.

Yeah, those things can actually be extremely sharp on the edges! Imagine sliding through a giant slicer...  :o

I'd say "ouch," but something tells me they didn't feel much.  :o

I'd be curious to hear the circumstances behind that mess!

OMG!
Yeah I don't think they felt a thing.... but holy moly!

Please tell me they were doing something less than bright!

There is nothing left of them or the bike.

That is the worst thing I think I have ever seen. :o   Not that its the best time to be sarcastic, but that won't be an open casket.

now i dont think the folks on the bike had long to think, or react, not that it would matter now, but, i gotta wonder what the guy driving the truck must have had going though his mind. what a nightmare to replay in your head, over and over.      


(lookin at pix)
welp, an asprin wont quite do it i dont think.

i think there was a major case of tunnel vision there,  Collision Vision to the extreme. Target fixation to the 10 power.

That is awful. One guys got no head, the others is smashed on the pavement. What an awful scene. The bike is gone! I cant get over the helmet on the truck. I cant even imagine whats still in the helmet if the guy aint got nothing on his body. Poor guys, at least it was quik.

Scary, but not that gross. I guess i should cool it down a bit around town..... I hope no one around here ends up even close to that =(
