The LA Times just posted this:
"As more older Americans take up motorcycling -- or return to it after
a decades-long hiatus -- one thing is becoming clearer to emergency
room physicians: When graying riders go down, they go down hard.
A Brown University study published Wednesday in the journal Injury Prevention, found that bikers age 60 and over were 2 1/2 times more likely to wind up in an emergency room with severe injuries than were riders in their 20s and 30s.
Middle-aged riders fared somewhat better, but were still 66% more likely to sustain serious injury than were younger bikers."
Really?
Hmmm.
