I was looking at Keira Knightley aboard a Ducati and found this video.

Truck fails to yield right away .  Pretty brutal and not much in the way of protection for the rider either. No helmet.

yeowch... The old left turn.  I'm surprised the dude is on his feet again that fast after taking that hit.

I think he had a helmet. It looks as though he came off when he crashed. Maybe he did not have it strapped properly.  He lost a shoe too lol.  Guy needs to learn how to tie stuff.

Again, football player. You're asking too much.

No helmet.

Happened about 20 miles from here, so it has been on the news non-stop.

I'm guessing the driver of the truck may have had the sun in his eyes.

No helmet?  Double owwww...

Looks like he is on a scooter so maybe he wasn't going that fast?

FRACK!!! I bet that when he popped up that it was all adrenaline. Hopefully he wasn't hurt too badly. That looked awful.


....and people criticize me for riding with my high beam on during the day....


If it saves me from something like that I'll do it every time I ride!

he bounced about 8-10in on his head.. if he doesn't have a concussion, then his head is made of granite.

no, his iq will drop quite a bit.  hope he gets regular MRIs..

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.
