Lady in a car was making a left hand turn across traffic. My friend was going straight, in his lane, with right of way.
'I never saw the motorcycle'
This guy is in my shooting group. I don't know most of the details. He doesn't remember what happened, but he is alive. Not sure how badly he is hurt.
I gave him some extra motorcycle body armor that I had when he got his new motorcycle, no clue if he was wearing it, or what he had on when he was hit. I know he always rides with a helmet and a motorcycle jacket, not sure if the jacket he had on was armored, I know 1 of his is, the other is not. But honestly even with full motocross armor, a car making a left hand turn into a motorcycle its always a motorcycle that loses. And its probably the most common fatal motorcycle crash.
Thankfully he is alive.
He's not an NC7--X rider, but he is a Honda guy. Rides (rode) a Shadow.
