Makes mine seem minor. Then again I had a tad more gear, and a lot of luck.

My God, how fast was the a$$hat going that the wind lifted her off the bike? And knowing how she was dressed?

THom, that isn't even close. Like nostatic said, she was going much faster, and I don't think there was any video of it. According to the article she was wearing jeans and a sweat shirt over a bikini. I'm guessing they were going 100+ when she fell off and I suspect that when she finally stopped she didn't have much if any cloths on. SHe had road rash over 55% of her body.
She's a beautiful girl. Such a hard way to learn a lesson.

I wonder what ever happened to the guy. She says surprisingly little about him. Maybe pending legal action, so she doesn't want to say too much? Or maybe she is just that forgiving?
