This one did not involve a motorcycle. However it's potentially an important lesson as it appears the semi trailer went over the centerline of Hwy 76 near Houston at mile marker 16. My mapping program shows MM16 is in that really twisty section. It's not hard to imagine the trucker did not use the shoulders to keep the trailer within his lane. A reminder to always be vigilant for this situation on a motorcycle.

Some folks had trouble getting to the rally because the police had Hwy 76 completely shut down.
