former airline pilot without the big bucks
I cannot believe the stupidity of some drivers!!!
here I was on hwy 20 southbound near grass valley california climbing the hill at 45MPH in the right lane. the motorhome is not a performer but I felt anyone faster can pass on the left lane so I am towing my R3 in the horse trailer behind the M/H listening to music when a loud noise and a jump startled me I look in the rear camera and I see a totalled car pissing coolant 10 feet behind me I realized he had rammed us in the frigging lane never applied brakes just plowed in the horse trailer which under the force jumped the hitch and rammed inside the back of motorhome breaking the crap holding tank and the bumper and the rear door etc etc
the trailer 's doors are caved in about a foot the hitch has to be cut and a new one welded the R3 shows a crumpled rear fender the framelock held the bike in place which minimized the damages . so now a week or two in a motel in sacramento waiting for repairs
the poor sod who hit me has no more car his honda was cut clean in two up to the windshield by the vertical post between the trailer doors..
so all the good captains who offered beer and BBQ well we will be back on the road hopefully by the end of first week in january.
