At no point...in your rambling incoherent response...were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points...and may God have mercy on your soul."
A couple months ago a guy I knew from High School died in a car crash. I have no idea how it feels to lose someone close and be there when it happened. I am sorry for your loss but do not let him die in vain. Everyone needs to take a step back and look at their riding skills. Remember him for the life he lived, not his death.
RIP Shane

I too ride in the back of the pack when we go riding in packs. Even on my snowmobile and four wheeler. I have come up on too many accidents with friends in front of me driving too fast with perhaps too little experience. The track is a different scenerio. Open it up and go!
Sorry for your loss dude, my prayers go out to the family and you as well.
Don't think that you're too much of a man to get counseling. I was the first responder and witness at an incident where one of my friends got her leg quite literally ripped off (not bike related) I'm still dealing with all the shit in my head, and I'm glad that I've seen trauma counselors. You may not know it now, but you'll look back on how you're mental status is now and realize that this kind of shit hits hard no matter who you are, and there is no shame in getting help.
Sorry for your loss, I have been there before and didn’t like it, but death is a fact of life (as the trauma counselors say) RIP and sympathy for the family for losing one so young.
Tonight, a toast to all the fallen riders.

I have had friends that have witnessed some horrible things, didn’t do much to me but messed up this one guy real bad, night tremors, insomnia, and loss of attention. This was for like a week, once he saw a trauma counselor a few days later he was a lot better. I also got checked out since my insurance covers it and she said I was fine, go figure.
