speed and alcohol cause alot around here nellie... but more cage to bike accidents I hear about are from lack of attention by drivers with cells and all... there are alot of riders around and a lot of nasty twisty hilly roads to get screwed up on... some riders cause their own grief..

I did hear the woman who crashed hit some debris washed out on the road by storms which is a big problem around here where asphalt and gravel roads meet.

falling trees is another hazard lately with all this raine we have had... they seem to come down for no reason and you hope it isn't on you! Had one come down on my road a week ago again... went down the road half hour later couldn't come back up tree was down blocking the road..

good news is that the tree company has been working on our road all week taking some down and trimming some back.
