    Re: 4 Motorcyclists Killed on I-29

    Drinking and driving before 6pm on a Monday? Yikes.

    T&P to the families of the victims.

    Re: 4 Motorcyclists Killed on I-29

    I just read this and its just tragic. My heart goes out to these families. My folks rode motorcycles for a number of years and they had a few close calls and that was hard enough to deal with. This is just terrible.

    Really sad, another reason I'm way too big of a wuss to get on those things.
    The only bigger turnoff than finding out a woman smokes, is finding out she's a Husker fan.

    Re: 4 Motorcyclists Killed on I-29

    I hate hearing these stories. I ride a motorcycle, and so do my parents and they were traveling in this area on Sunday headed to Sturgis.

    RIP and prayers to the families of those who died

    Re: 4 Motorcyclists Killed on I-29

    Stories like this are exactly why I will never ride my motorcycle on a road that has more than 1 lane or a speed limit over 55. It's just not worth the risk.

    Re: 4 Motorcyclists Killed on I-29

    Makes me glad I sold my bike a few weeks ago. Between other riders and me driving stupidly fast, it probably wouldn't have ended well.

    Re: 4 Motorcyclists Killed on I-29

    Thoughts and prayers to the vicitms famililes.

    From KMA's website:

    Sources tell KMA News three of the riders were from Glenwood and the other from Nebraska; the four are said to be of the American Legion Riders who led the soldiers out of town from Shenandoah Sunday August 1.

    Agreed. It just isn't worth it.

    This story is literally making me sick. You only hope that this story inspires people to be better and realize their actions result in consequences that affect more than just themselves.

    I've had and rode my motorcycle for the last 10 years. The only things that i have feared have been deer and drunk drivers. I wish that people would read stories like this and really take it to heart. Do'nt drive when you've been drinking.
