Re: Burton bike fatality

you don't die from idleing into a pickup, or even going 20mph into a pickup... He had to be flyin... I doubt he was very experianced stunt-wise... or wearing a helmet.

Re: Burton bike fatality

"was doing a rear-wheel stand "
Sounds like he got a tanks slapper.
Also sound like one of the O-town MMI squids. You have to see these idiots to believe it.

But bottom line it's still a fellow rider lost. R.I.P.

Re: Burton bike fatality

You have a couple points but I don't think age has anything to do with being a squid. Seat time and knowledge means more to me then age. There is a lot to be said about taking a riding class or just doing a trackday. I would rather slide across the asphalt then be stopped by in unmovable object. Like usual it most likely wasn’t the crash that killed him but the sudden stop.

RIP
