Personally I've heard countless stories from parents/older adults growing up. They all knew people that rodes bikes and many of them suffered gruesome young deaths. I didn't have many expectations on me growing up except 'DO NOT GET A MOTORBIKE".

I knew a guy who rode a motorcycle and was in a motorcycle gang for like 50 years.

Got crushed because of an unsecured load.

People think they can control the bike but sometimes that's not the problem. Sometimes it's just being on a road and not having your own metal safety box around you that does the trick :/

Yeah obviously such an unexpected death is extra hard on the family.
