I get it, some people are really risk averse. Particularly once you are married or have children. But I really take issue with the thought that you have to be out of your mind to enjoy a motorcycle ride because you have children.
How about wtf was the truck driver who turned in front of them thinking?
Probably the same thing that the thousands of other drivers who hit bikes every year are thinking, which is nothing since they don't see them. There's a reason every new rider is taught the adage "It's not if you crash, but when". My main issue is that two new parents would double on a single bike, which again increases the risk of an accident. I dunno, it just hurts thinking about those two young kids who will grow up without their parents because they wanted to go on a pleasure cruise
