TV said one motorcycle front wheel caught in a cone.
May we have a moment of silence for the big guy?

It didn't kill me... just my fav way to burn heartbeats. At one point (I
think before the TBI resolved... if it has resolved...:), I was trying to
locate info on this kind of crash to support an idea I had for a cone that
won't put a bike down by nesting in the base. Only have found two incidents
so far. Both at my speed and both resulted in serious injuries. Any chance
you can get me a link on that Joe?

Ahh... I was unclear... to the TV story that mentioned the cone. You
know... YOU shouldn't be distracting me this much right now:)

Snoot,
I recall doing a brief search at the time I saw the TV news describing
involvement of cones. I'm busy sifting through tire kickers, trying to
sell my XL600R and don't have the time to do my core job, researching for
others-snicker.
I'd say call the SF PD and after your remarkable ingratiating talents get
you in, perhaps you could delicately raise an interest in the
aforementioned incident.
But, I'm ready willing and able to volunteer Charles.
Toof
