On Monday, I crashed my Monster at about 50mph. I suffered road rash on my hip and lots of bruising- and Pandora has flesh wounds of her own. Here’s what exactly happened, and the lowdown on the gear that saved my life.
I didn’t miss the insanely heart-wrenching news about Marco Simoncelli passing away Sunday, in fact I received the news when I arrived on set for the Icon shoot that morning. What a way to start the day, eh? I made this design for a MotoCorsa email blast and have decided I indeed want to post it here.
“You live more for five minutes going fast on a bike like that than other people do in all of their life” – Marco Simoncelli
Ciao, Marco. You, your hair, your sass, and your aggressive riding style will be missed by millions. Rest and ride in peace.
