Bad ride this morning
So our local forum organized our usual Sunday group ride. Unfortunately, 4 riders went down, one of them was critically injured...
He had to be airlifted out...
Here is where it gets really trivial... Some redneck ******* in a truck had to wait a few minutes while the helicopter landed on the highway to pick up the almost dying guy... when the chopper leaves, the guy pulls his window down as he is passing the group and says all the riders deserved to fall and die... Of course he didnt stop just yelled it out as he drove by...

Five people were injured Sunday morning when four motorcycles collided on I-75 in Davie.
One of the cyclists, Jose Antonio Zaldivar, 56, of Medley, was in critical condition at Broward General Medical Center Sunday night, according to a Florida Highway Patrol news release. The three other motorcyclists and one passenger suffered minor injuries, according to Sgt Mark Wysocky, a Florida Highway Patrol spokesman.
The accident occurred about 8:45 a.m. at the I-75 northbound ramp to I-75 westbound, according to the news release.
Zaldivar was traveling west on his 2005 Honda MC when a group of three 2006 Honda MCs tried to pass him, according to Wysocky.
He said a sideswipe occurred when a motorcycle driven by Rafael R. Martinez tried to pass Zaldivar, but it wasn't clear who sideswiped whom.
Zaldivar's motorcycle was then struck by another motorcycle driven by Victor A. Castillo, 25, of Weston, and both vehicles fell to the ground.
Castillo's motorcycle was then struck by a fourth one, driven by David Lee Manes, 22, of Hollywood, which also fell.
Castillo and his passenger, Maria Acosta, 24, of Pembroke Pines, were taken to Broward General and Manes was taken to Cleveland Clinic, all with minor injuries, Wysocky said.
All four motorcyclists were wearing helmets, according to the news release.
Wysocky said the accident was still under investigation late Sunday.
