================================================== ====================

Hi.

Another tragedy.

And why does the media always call these bike *TOURS* *RACES*?

I ride a number of organized tours every year. For some reason when
ever they get mentioned in the media, especially in the printed media,
they are referred to as races.

My sympathies and condolences to the families of the victims.

Peter

That is quite possibly one of the most insane pictures I have seen in
a long time. People never cease to amaze me......Prayers to the
families....

Yeah, looking at the US banana boat he was driving, he probably was a
Gringo all right. *Mexico *should* toss all those drunken Norte
assholes back over the border.

Unbelievable pic:

Another photo shows the perp in what I assume was the local lockup,
and I'd swear he had a cell phone in hand. Any side wagers that he
was on it at the time of the atrocity?
