I've been reading and posting on this forum for a few months now and all the rider down threads and the stories of hearing people come through because of thier gear has got me commited to wearing all my equipment. And Who ever said your not the only one affected when you go down is absolutely right. My dad had a bad motorcycle accident in 92' when he crashed his bike. It ripped my family apart. And I wont have the same thing happen to me and my wife. No way.
So how do we get started with this whole thing? We could talk forever about it, but untill someone takes the first step its still just an idea. How do the stunt shows and things usually get started? As for media. I see the local news report on some dumb ass stories all the time. Im sure if we made a call to a local station and explained to them what we want. They would come especially since they always show up for the accidents. Would be a good change of pace. I'm sure radio would plug the event too if we gave one of the early morning shows a call.
