Just heard about this incident after getting home from class and having 8 missed calls and messages on my cell phone and 2 on the answering machine at home.

Obviously I'm ok. I think the Roberts Road area is Shayne636's neighborhood and there or others in the Hilliard / west Columbus area.

Check in and let us know you're alright.

it's about 25 miles for me from home to work. i work in columbus around the georgesville / west broad area (NO! not on the corner!) after work i go to class downtown and then back home. and yes, there always seems to be some sort of close call or something that'll make your butt hole pucker.

Another rider lost his life yesterday near my house on the Westside.

Heard it on the news this morning, think they said his name was Brian Beaumont?? The news article below does not list his name.

They said he lost control and hit the semi. I can tell you by the looks of the picture and knowing where it happened that the semi probably turned out in front of him off of Securities St.

Looks like he was screwing around. Hate to say it, but when you mess around and there are 4 wheeled or more machines around, you tend to get the raw end of the stick. Bummer of a deal, but riders need to be more aware and less stupid on these bikes...
