Today around 4:30 there was a motorcycle accident on I-20 where im guessing someone died. I passed by there and saw something covered under a blue tarp.
Any more info?

I know a guy that goes out there all the time to run with his buddies. They are nuts. I hope it wasn't him or anyone he knows

Frankly I don't think metro Atlanta is any place for a motorcyclist unless it's strictly a status symbol (lolz). The drivers here are too ****ing stupid, and the traffic is even worse.

I'd rather not put my life in the hands of the soccer mom SUV gods.

Funny, usually its because of lack of experience.

I can very much believe that too. But wouldn't a lack of experience, in this cities traffic make things exponentially worse, because of the addition of so many other variables. Plus from what I can see as a non motorcyclist, there's very, very little room for error on a motorcycle, much less one with sporting intentions.

I rode a bike for the first time a few months ago, and it was an experience I'll never forget. I've never been on anything with wheels, I was more terrified of. Nothing against bikes, my dad used to tell me as a kid how much better, and more fun motorcycles were than cars, and he absolutely loved the things. I'd be open to learning how to ride one if I could do it in a closed environment, but around here I'm just to chicken **** to ride the things.

I wouldn't know how to react if I ever saw you in traffic QD.

I'd probably P.I.T maneuver the nearest single occupant SUV, and proceed to set myself on fire.
