My wife and I took my Vette for a ride around here on some backroads (153) on Wednesday, the best day of bike week. We then headed over to Wolfeboro and then down to Alton and Laconia to Sawyers for some fried clams. We literally passed hundreds of bikers and I could not believe how many were riding the center line. The idiots with the highway pegs doing this actually had a foot over the line.
My neighbor, who lives in Mass, was going home on Saturday and witnessed a real bad bike accident in Tamworth where (according to him) 2 bikes, both in large groups going in opposite directions, were riding too close to the center and clipped mirrors causing the accident. 2 helicopters had to respond to transport 1 to Dartmouth Hitchcock and the other to Maine Med. Remaining went by ambulance.
