A good friend gone!!!
« on: August 28, 2013, 10:01:19 PM »
Wow I do not post on this part of the board even when I just went down 2 months ago.

I had a subordinate at work who was a GREAT FIREFIGHTER and a GREAT PERSON. There have been a lot of problems on the job caused by the Management. Employees were having a hard time getting any leave and being held over because of lack of Manpower. My Buddy finally got some leave and took it. He was out riding and just unwinding when a cage driver made the dreaded left hand turn in front of him. He hit the car pretty hard sending both occupants in the car to the hospital. Unfortunately he did not survive. This just kills me!!!! I get to bury him on the 4th.

RIP BROTHER

Dawg,
Sorry for the loss of your friend. And I say friend because they are few and far between. You call him a subordinate but we know better. Left turn in front of a motorcycle is always bad and I didn't see them is not a comforting statement. We as riders need to be alert to the dummies in cages and we in cages need to be alert of the almost dummies on motorcycles. It's called tit for tat. I didn't mean to get off track but I did.
May your friend rest in peace.
Mike
