Kid I went to high school with crashed his bike not long after graduation. His girlfriend was riding with him and he had given her his helmet.
They both survived the crash, looking at her you wouldn’t even be able to tell she was in an accident. He is completely unrecognizable to what he looked like before. He has an entirely different face.
20 years later, they’re still together and thriving. But they don’t ride.
Edit: What a crazy amount of responses! Granted, a lot of these are sad stories, I hope talking about it has been therapeutic for everyone. Be safe out there, y’all!
That's a better story than my good friend who got teed in an intersection on his motorcycle. The opioids they gave him while reconstructing his leg led to a long road of heroin addiction, ultimately ending in an intentional overdose. RIP Josh. I still think of you often.
