Holy crap! It looks like it slid on its side for a little bit by looking at the grass in the rim. Glad he's ok. What happened?

IF you ride a bike (Harley, Sport bike, etc..) do yourselves a HUGE favor and ALWAYS where your HELMET !
I was rear ended by a drunk driver going 50mph while I was sitting still waiting to make a left turn. When I woke up in the hospital I was alive after flying over two lanes of traffic and landing in the parking lot of a junk yard - No joke! this is a very true story. My bike looked like an acordian it was so wrinkled up. My helmet was cracked down the middle and my leathers were worn down past my skin. I know there's some that don't like wearing them and I was one for a while when I was younger. But I wouldn't be here if I had not had it on. It's like a safety belt, only for your bike. Your bike won't look good but you just may make it like I did.
Happy Riding/driving & Keep the sunny side up !

You know what you are absolutely right. Helmets are really important, and not only only for motorbikes but also bicyles. They are even LESS likely to be seen!
