The harbor where I live and ride is full of old tracks that have been partially paved over. One crash was because I was not paying attention to the road and looking out at the boats and the other was while crossing multiple tracks carrying too much speed. There is also a trolley line here but all the crossings are marked and at 90 degrees. kawamawasailorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05550767849169150590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-30925355521922939542016-08-04T10:30:44.932-04:002016-08-04T10:30:44.932-04:00If the iPhone was wearing a helment when it explod...If the iPhone was wearing a helment when it exploded, would the burns have been better or worse?JLRBnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-18405520832010348482016-08-04T10:11:04.664-04:002016-08-04T10:11:04.664-04:00crash into mecrash into meDave Matthews obviously does not ride a bikenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-54981181017629334592016-08-04T08:42:13.965-04:002016-08-04T08:42:13.965-04:00The sirens were whaling?
