Default Harley rider on cell phone, no kidding.

I was driving home from the airport late yesterday and passed an UC. Rider was talking on a cell phone. He was holding it (a flip phone style) in his left hand and had the speaker part jammed up into his half helmet.

He had a gal passenger on the back. He was in the right (slow) lane on the freeway going about 65 mph just chatting away.

Wonder what he's going to do to my insurance rates one of these days?

His family may want to go ahead and have them in loving memory decals made up. It won't be long.

Hey Pirate, do you think his family may want to have "in loving memory" decals printed up?

I can't figure out how whoever is on the other line can hear anything other than wind while the guy is talking.

The idiot probably thought he looked cool to all the other idiots around him who were on there cell phone. His passenger should have taken it out of his hand and tossed it. My idea is all cell phones should have motion detection and shut down if moving faster than a jog.

Oh, h*ll, we can do it right here:

"In Loving Memory of the Cell Phone Junkie"

So many bikes, so few bikers.
Maybe time for a li'l bleach in the gene pool.

I can barely hear on the phone in a cage at 65, how in the hell could he hear anything let alone talk. He's crazy.
