My brother was riding home from Philly this afternoon (98 gsxr srad) and was cut off on the exit for our house. Newtown exit. A box truck carrying construction equipment swerved into his lane and cut him off so the truck could make the exit in front of my bro. He flew of the rode at about 50 MPH I'm guessing into a grass median. The truck never stopped or anything. Just kept going. Unbelievable I swear some people are ridiculous. He just put his bike together about a month ago from getting a bunch of worrk done and custom paint. It's n pretty rough shape and so is he. No hospital tough.


Everyone out there be careful and always keep your eyes peeled. You never know what's gonna happen out there on the road. It seems like every week there's an accident involving a bike. Ride safe y'all and godbless

 

Rode 85 miles today, got within about 5 miles of my house and an older woman pulled out in front of me in an F150 making a left turn in an intersection as I was headed straight. Thank god she saw me at the last second and I had plenty of escape room. Glad your brother is alright though.

 

Glad she saw you. Whew. People gotta watch out for us. He was also leless than 5 miles from home. The person hit him and drove on like nothing happened. Unreal

 

Yeah the woman gave me a look like it was my fault and I just threw my hand up at her like wtf?

 

We are invisible.. all the more reason to be careful out there.. hope your brother gets better soon.

 

damn, sorry to hear about your brother and his bike. i've built my bikes and couldn't imagine watching one of them getting thrown down the road just after i finished it. i'm glad he's okay (considering no hospital).

 

Yea he's aight. He's a tough guy haha but his bike is smashed. I couldn't imagine being in his spot. I just got my f4i back in may and is be crushed if something happened to her..... she's my pride and joy ha

 

Glad your bro is ok. Could've been a lot worse. Sorry about his bike.

Keep you head on a swivel out there!

 

I live 20 min out of philly. its really not a fun place to drive around. I avoid philly as much as possible. Glad hes okay.

 

Glad to hear he is okay and a shame about his bike. Hope he is back out on the road soon.
