Front and center on CNN Home page:

Marine motorcycle deaths top their Iraq combat fatalities - CNN.com

Talking about more Marines killed on motorcycles in the last year than in Iraq.

I thought for a mionute it was going to be a KLR story. The USMC uses KLR's for mobiole combat patrols......

Typical of CNN. I mean: Superficial. If not skewed.

What, for instance, of Marines who ride (rode?) motorcycles in Iraq ?

Jamie...

If you cruise you-tube, there are some interesting KLR vids there. Especially the ones with the Marines training on KLR's in the sand...and going on their butts.
