Watch out for cars, animals....and trees

That time of the year when a lot of bikes are on the road. Saw this news article about a freak accident - a tree falling and killing two riders in Michigan.

Ride safe ! Be aware of your surroundings. Check your bike for loose bolts, oil level, coolant (more than 2 years old and overflow), tires.....

Just Crazy, I have always been told if it is my time it is my time. That is usually said when I am getting twitchy during bad weather worrying about a Tornado.. prayers for this family

Had a biker hit a deer on a freeway in town this week end, he didn't make it. Hazards are everywhere, ride safe!!

One time on Highway 16 in the Black Hills we came around the corner and there was a boulder about the size of my mustang on our half of the road! Anything can happen!
