Passing on some sad news that I read at Keep the Rubber Side Down.
Last Thursday, Cliff Gullett was trying to set a new two stroke motorcycle land speed record on the salt flats of Bonneville. He was going 237 MPH (385 kilometers per hour) when he crashed and died.

As I posted on Biker Chickz Blog, at least the guy was doing what he loved when it was time.
Dave,
I can't even imagine wiping out at that speed.
At that speed, it must have been over for him pretty quickly. No time to react. My thoughts go out to his family.
As I have said many times, There's only two ways I want to go.
And mama say's the first would traumatize her. so I geuss it will have to be on a bike.
Ann,
I can only hope it didn't hurt.
Big D.
I agree. But what was the other way?
a fun pastime that INVOLVES Mama. :]
