Very very sorry to read about the motor cyclist biker who lost his leg in French Valley area.. All American bikers should visit Germany and ride their bike on the autobahn and experience the crazy but safe speeding there . Quite common to see 150 mph + riders passing a BMW etc. Or visit the "Isle of Man TT" during the TT Race week where the world's greatest bike racers compete riding Italian German British Japanese bikes And they do 125 mph + "average speed per lap" with includes the hairpin bend. Unless you are a good bike rider I would stay out of the "Mad Sunday race" where any biker can ride, but its insanely fast and very dangerous if you don't know what you are doing.
Question why are my comments 'Pending Approval" lately, that was not the case in the past. Had it to do with restriction on freedom of speech thing ? Just asking dudes.
you sound like one of those politically correct do-gooder 's. Look up the word HYPOCRISY in the English language. You know the English language we speak here in the USA. Since we do not have our own language, like the French, Iraqi's, Russians, Dutch, Germans, Italians Japanese , Chinese, Iran do, etc. OH I forgot we are a manufactured country only 236 years old By the way IRAN is approx. 7,000 years old. versus the USA @ 236 years old. Have a fairly nice day dude.
All this in the so-called Land of the Free. The USA
Yep dude you are probably correct. Its just that I am sick and tired of these politically correct holier than though moderators ruling the roost for the slightest infraction.
Everyone needs to read this story about how this young mans life was saved out on that highway by these two soldiers. We as a community need to recognize them. This is one of those stories that give the chills. I live in Temecula and this story was not written in our local patch and it should have been. You two are heros and thank God for your training as you did indeed save this young mans life. You also both live here and should be recognized for this. Not something most of us could do or stomach.
