I was taking my old hot-tub to a friend's house just after the noon-hour today, and just as I rounded the turn on Buckingham (in front of the liquor stores) - They had traffic shut down... a bike and a car up on a flat-bed tow truck... and the bad news... they were surveying the site as I passed by... I didn't notice the make of the bike, but it was a big'en - possibly a Valkyrie About an hour later, on my way back, I stopped at the Oasis Liquor store there, and asked the clerk if they knew what had happened.... She says that witnesses say that the bike was headed westbound, and trying to turn left into the shopping center parking lot... and wound up turning into the path of the car. Bike was under the car, and driver was thrown... dunno how far... Said driver of bike was still alive, but very bloody when Careflight got there to transport to Parkland... but had no update other than that... I'm suspecting that the police were not expecting him to make it (or he had to be transported to a hospital for official declaration of death), since the survey was taking place... Be careful out there... Rex S.
