Normally, I get pretty angry with people when they fuck up driving. However, this time, I was very calm and have to give the lady credit for stoping to hear what I had to say. She could have very well kept going not wanting to hear she did something wrong. I think that is a huge part of the altercations we have while riding. People don't like to hear they messed up.

The guy acted as if it was YOUR fault he pulled out infront of you? Ugh, people make me sick.

Columbus drivers suck... However, no matter where your riding, crap like this happens. I'm have a firm belief that they need to add more motorcycle awareness into drivers ed. Not that it would solve all the problems, people are way too infused into their phones, life, and anything else that could distract them.

Oh no, not supprised although since this is about 6 houses down from mine, there is defiantly a tone of anger. People drive their cars like idiots in my subdivision.

Agreed however, that's not going to stop be from putting their foolishness on the Internet!!!

That looks sweet man, gotta get my wife to give one a try sometime. Maybe I can get her to want to take my GSXR... Than I'd get a new bike!!

Some lady pulled out in front of me when I was returning from a ride today... She didn't even pause to stop at the stop sign. I have had maybe 3 different people almost hit me here, its to the point that I expect it... That is sad... Speedo says 32-34, but is ~ 5 mph's off. After I turned around, I pulled up to her window and was like "You do understand that there is a STOP sign there right?" She replied with, "Yes, I never do that... I am soooo sorry". I understand people make mistakes but damn lady, PAY ATTENTION! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEDJuMXTzkQ

Must... Resist.... Can I get a price for a 07 GSXR 600?!

Well... STFU. Personally, I think it's going to be a good time. To each their own though.

Anyone going to be getting in line tonight for the launch? When/Where?!?!!?

I vote yes to action shots If no, thats cool... I didn't see a UPS truck on the way home anyways...

Almost every day I see one on my way home... Time to turn the GoPro on.... wait, would a snap of a video count if it shows part of the bike?!

Ryan, are you SURE this is for your wife?!?!?!?!!?

Welp, I didn't order mine... I guess I'll be in line waiting...

Got ya, thanks!!

My dad was a special case, he had a lot of scar tissue from all the surgery and he still hasn't recovered. He still has that feeling along with the feeling of a lot of pressure (like someone is squeezing his body). The good/bad thing about spinal injury's is that no one is the same and just because my dad is having such a hard time recovering, that doesn't mean that it will be the same for your brother. My dad was over 50 years old when this happened and he has a condition where his spinal cord canal was thinner than normal. This caused more damage then anything else... there was a lot more pressure due to the fact that his cord was constricted. To answer your question though, I do think its a normal sensation. However, from what the doctors have told him, it normally does not last as long as this.

Sorry to hear about your brother.. My father was in a accident on his motorcycle. He was driving up a moving-van ramp and the ramp slipped forcing him to fall to the ground. luckily the bike did not land on him however, he did land as such that he broke his C3-C7 and bruised his C-2. He can "walk" now, but not very well. He does not feel things the way others do. He always feels as if his entire body is asleep. Also, he has very little strength throughout his legs and his feet feel as if they are always cramped. Watching my dad go through life after his accident has been trying, we went to BJ's up in Polaris Saturday and he almost fell from tripping over the carpet. What I/we have found to help in these situations is to encourage a different perception. Even though I know it hurts his self-esteem, we try to laugh about it and move forward. Every time I see him it seems as though things are the same if not worst even though he has had a LOT of surgery's. The thing to press him to remember is that he is not alone. What you need to remember is that you are not alone either. Talk to him, make sure he knows that you are open to him telling you his fears and than tell him yours. Keeping each other supported is very important... Be strong but also allow him to be strong. I hope things get better, your family is in my thoughts and prayers...

Those videos are priceless...
