My mom called.. doing a head count on us. Said it looked bad. Dark blue bike couldn't tell what kind, brown or rootbeer colored cruiser type bike... My mom doesn't know bikes so no better info. She said a white truck was also rolled over. Who ever they are I hope they are ok!!

Scary... A motorcyclist was also hit within the hour on 8th and Fort in boise, i know because the fire batallion started rippn on me for not wearing a helmet as i fueled up, then i pulled my helmet off the rear foot peg on the side of the bike he couldnt see.

redi2ride · 07-11-2012, 08:41 PM

Hope all is well with the riders. I got several calls from Church friends who saw the cruisers down. I'm happy to say it wasn't me.

Best wishes to the riders! Hope everything turns out ok!

Dammit, I wish people would pay better attention while driving. Rush hour is always scary on a bike. That's why I always where bright neon colored jacket's when commuting, even if it is really damn hot outside. Better to be seen, than run over by a bonehead in a cage. My prayers go out those that were injured and a their families.

redi2ride · 07-12-2012, 12:23 PM

I wonder what happened. I have a freind who saw it. Havent personally spoke to him yet. He said it was a Root beer colored bike and a purple bike. Sounds like husband and wife to me.

(Says the guys who's helmet doesn't protect his muffler, much less his head).

Don't you just love peer pressure?

Coyotte78 · 07-12-2012, 09:12 PM

I rode by it on my way home from work looked preaty bad left lane was closed off didn't get a good look at the bikes. Had customer tell me that the bikes were slowing for some reason and the truck rearended them. Customer speculated that the truck driver was drunk. I hope the guy pulls through ok. Thats why I wear my gear even in 100 degree heat.

Did you read the post? He DID have a helmet but it cam off during the crash. Not sure how it was attached or whether it was attached at all but he DID have one on.
