"Roeske says an ambulance was called to scene, but Roeske believes the victim was not transported to the hospital."

Nope, this one goes straight to jail! 

I watched it a couple times in slomo and have a few thoughts
1) half-assed attempt to run, really wasn't going that much faster than the surrounding traffic
2) exiting the ramp he put himself in far left lane - I interpret his intention was to turn left
3) he appears (grainy) to start a gradual left (perhaps body steering - based on his wide arc turns between traffic) and panics
4) I think I see hte front end dip as he puts on the brakes and heads straight
5) ATGATT saved him from showing up to court in a wheelchair
6) I want to see the remaining footage where the officer comes out the squad with weapon drawn and cuffs the dude

No, but you did used to see racers wearing woolen jerseys, pudding bowls and goggles.   Things might change.....

Ian,
   As I'm one of a very small handful of people who have arguable put on the most open-forum rides in the last 10 years *, I've grown weary of constant criticism from those that seam to rarely if ever conduct open-forum rides.
   Perhaps you could give us your insight as to what would make open-forum group rides more enjoyable from your perspective. I believe you probably have great organizational skills as you are involved in teaching motorcycling classes (albeit absolute novice, right?) and I'm sure some of those skills could be applied in this instance. Please lay out, step by step, they ways you feel a ride should be conducted.

Sincerely,
Greg not Steve

*not boasting, believe me. just a fact

Greg,

I could defend my choice to volunteer my time to teach entry level track riders, but obviously there was a dig at my skill level intended by your using "absolute novice" which doesn't deserve anything more than to point out that I taught my first class in 1980. 

When I first joined HSTA, I had more time available and did lead one ride.  I also successfully created and ran a charity ride for 30 riders for 7 years where I created the route sheet, lead the ride and handled many of the logistics including route sheets.

Having laid out my credentials as you asked...   All I was saying in that last post was that there is a flaw in how many route sheet based rides place higher stress levels on the newer riders who sometimes get overloaded.  My charity rides always have two routes, one longer than the other so that we arrive at luch together with no one feeling they had to ride over their head.  Our leaders and sweeps always pre-ride the route the week before and we keep the groups small and managable.  We also have a trailer available for mechanicals.   While the trailer is not practical for forum rides, the other suggestions can be useful for setting up an introductory (or slower rider friendly) ride for MSTA participants.

That depends on helmet and fairing.   With fairing if the turbulence is at your neck it will be low hZ.  Naked bike with ill fitting face shield will be much higher frequency - think whistling.  I tend to push the spoken word frequencies for best personal enjoyment (think bell curve on equalizer).

I'm afraid you heard correct Denyse.

Wow, I guess that no swimming sign is an understatement.

That looks very cool.   However, my personal experience of carrying my iPhone in the window of my tank bag is that it gets overheated by the direct sunlight and then shuts down to protect itself.

good find!

No Shit - A Triple!  The MV Augusta is my guess.  Man that thing is sexxxxxxxy!
