How can a slower rider, being passed by a faster rider "fixate' on the faster rider and hit his rear wheel. I know the rider who's bike Gerard hit and he's pretty cut up about it. It doesn't need to be made worse by stupid statements like that. The faster rider (Miles I guess) is to blame if anyone. He is the passer and it's HIS responsiblity to get around the slower rider in front. Hey, ya put amateur ex500s in the same race as Expert Duc 800s, whaddya expect?

My thoughts are with Gerard, Christina and the kids. Here's a blast from the past.
We need vests............plain and simple.

As racers we need to place blame on no one but us. We know the risks each start of the bike bring. It just sucks when it's one of our own.

Heal up Gman.
