Are You An Excessive Risk Taker?

If you ride a motorcycle, you just might be. That is, according to a report from Carnegie Mellon University.

In the report, the most dangerous vehicle to drive is … a motorcycle. And the most dangerous day to drive is … Saturday. Which is, incidentally, when most of us would seem to be riding.

The report, Traffic STATS, prepared by Carnegie Mellon University, is a detailed and searchable new risk analysis of road fatality statistics. (You can access the interactive system here.)

About Ronn

More to follow in this space. I am just a guy who is interested in motorcycles. I currently ride an '04 HD Heritage Softail Classic (I traded in my '06 HD XL 1200 C in February 2008). I started this site because I am just arrogant enough to think that I can put together a site that appeals to a wide, cross-section of riders on several different levels. I hope you find it interesting, provocative (just really wanted to use that word :-) and fun and that you will encourage others to visit as well. Thanks!
