Woody Posted April 9, 2010 Share #1 Posted April 9, 2010 I may need to get my seat fixed, while riding two up with my daughter on a narrow country road we meet a white pick up truck coming in our direction driving very slow as if looking for an address or something and then from behind the truck a red truck came around a curve way to fast and could not stop for the white truck it took to the ditch on the right side of the white truck and passed it in the ditch came back in the road in front of the truck with it’s front wheels off the ground coming straight at us I took the ditch on my right avoiding the red truck a mail box and then the white truck. After my daughter was able to talk she said at one point she could have touched the red truck and the mail box at the same time. If we had been in four wheels we could not have got out of the way. Good thing is no one was hurt, bike got a couple of scraps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mraf Posted April 9, 2010 Share #2 Posted April 9, 2010 Nice driving. You must have encountered some Talladega speedway wannabees in the red truck. Any crash you walk away from is a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zfrebird4 Posted April 9, 2010 Share #8 Posted April 9, 2010 Safe and sound. Did the red or white pick up trucks stop to see if you were ok? Just wondering. JackZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woody Posted April 9, 2010 Author Share #9 Posted April 9, 2010 I did not stop to see if they where ok, in my mirror I could see the red truck still going down the road and there was no contact with the white truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
