I don't remember where I got this but I thought it was great. Love the boots. Figured I'd post it here so if I need it I don't have to search for it.

Can you spot the motorcycle in the first picture?

A picture is worth a thousand words.
The Honda rider was traveling at such a "very high speed", his reaction time was not sufficient enough to avoid this accident. Swedish Police estimate a speed of ~250 KM/h (155mph) before the bike hit the slow moving car side-on at an intersection. At that speed, they predicted that the rider's reaction time (once the vehicle came into view) wasn't sufficient enough for him to even apply the brakes. The car had two passengers and the bike rider was found INSIDE the car with them.. The Volkswagen actually flipped over from the force of impact and landed 10 feet from where the collision took place.
 
All three involved (two in car and rider) were killed instantly. This graphic demonstration was placed at the Stockholm Motorcycle Fair by the Swedish Police and Road Safety Department. The sign above the display also noted that the rider had only recently obtained his license.
At 250 KM (155 mph) the operator is traveling at 227 feet per second. With normal reaction time to SEE-DECIDE-REACT of 1.6 seconds the above operator would have traveled over 363 feet while making a decision on what actions to take. In this incident the Swedish police indicate that no actions were taken.

My local Honda shop (Fun Wheels Honda (631) 289-9242) had Colin Edwards' '02 RC51 SP2 on display for a few weeks so one day I ran in there at just about closing time and took some pics.

Enjoy!

 Unidentified rider practicing wheelies on video, in shorts and a T-shirt. They should give out an I.Q. test when purchasing a bike!
