Nicky grew up about 20 miles from me. I remember watching the brothers race around the dirt oval at the local fairgrounds. They blew everyone away of course. They said they Nicky was the best of the brothers. Guess he's proved that.
On a similar note the husband of my wife's friend was just injured severely riding in a group near Louisville, KY on their way to WV. A car came fully into their lane and took out two on the four BMW riders.
He was an avid rider, taught local motorcycle safety classes. Had logged nearly 100,000 miles.
They were on a 'boys' trip as the wives ride too.
Prayers as he in not out of the woods yet.
I guess this just echoes the Nicky story, normally riding in a group is considered safer until it's not.
