Sorry for loss to families and fellow riders

Remember, especially for next few months - cooler temps of roads and tires reduce traction, as well as sand/salt residue on roadways. Cage drivers are NOT thinking about bikes this time of year either.

I guess it was their time, left of center and a Cement Truck fully loaded just happens to be there. Amazing how these things work out.

RIP and prayers for the one fighting to survive.

Remember, if you ride this time of year you are even more invisable to cagers, and the season makes riding more difficult. Slow down check your tire preasures before you go out, and stay focused.

Ride safe all,

Greg

Rip

ohio twp. – two motorcyclists were killed in a fiery crash and a third is fighting for his life, police said, following a crash along u.s. 52 in clermont county, just east of new richmond.

James hensley, 39, of new richmond, and daniel frazee, 56, of bethel, died at the scene. A medical helicopter flew their companion, larry gillinger, 53, of fayetteville, to university hospital, where he was listed in critical condition tuesday night, the ohio state highway patrol said.

The three cyclists were following each other, eastbound on u.s. 52 around 2:25 p.m. When the lead cyclist, hensley, failed to negotiate a curve and went left-of-center, head-on into the path of a westbound cement truck, the patrol said. The truck overturned and struck frazee, and a sliding motorcycle struck gillinger; two of the motorcycles caught fire.

Carl watson, 58, of seaman, ohio, was driving the truck, which is owned by sardinia concrete. The pierce township life squad took watson to clermont mercy hospital. He was treated and released.

Hensley and gillinger were both wearing helmets; frazee was not, the patrol said.
