Had 2 bikes crash together over on the east side (Illinois). Appears to be crotch rockets. Supposedly, they were going in the 130-150 mph range. One of the riders is dead. Comments online immediately went to helmet/no helmet. Little concern over the individuals, just more of the same old arguments.

My rider didn't wanna start, so I had to put the charger to it. Then I ran over, and destroyed, a sprinkler head. Not content with things so far, I ran over, and did a fine job of rendering useless, a cap on one of my drain lines.

Speeds like that are rarely good on public roads. Too many imperfections. A "witness" claimed to see one of the bikes get a big wobble in the front end. Bad mojo.
