Expected to be ok. Must be one tough guy. Normally a headline like that doesn't have a happy ending.

Former motorcycle rider. Not sure I've ever heard of anybody coming out OK on something like that.

I have owned 5 different Bikes, and I don't ride anymore. At 67 I lost my nerve. All you have to do is observe the number of A-HOLES texting while driving. It is hard enough to spot a bike when you are paying attention.

He's extremely lucky, and thankfully! I've seen the aftermath of a rider getting pulped by a garbage truck.

You got that right Offshore. I'm 55 and had dirt bikes and rode the streets back when I was 18-21. Always thought about getting a Harley but not so much anymore. I live in Fort Worth now and it would be just too damned dangerous these days. And texting plays a big role in that. May just get some dirt bikes for me, my son and wife.
