Then the grandmother blames the wreck on Hernando County not having ANYWHERE to ride??? Hello, Crooms?? And it's been several years, but I saw several riding spots on the side of 19 in and around Spring Hill. As in, I saw people riding, and it was obviously a common spot. I was in SH to buy a dirt bike, and the kid who had it had plenty of places to ride - he was upgrading to something faster.
Are you saying had he been on a 125 this wouldn't have happened NOTHING wrong with the bike he was riding, it was just a poor decision on his part NOT to watch for traffic. And about the 'nowhere to ride', if there isnt anywhere to ride why the hell did you buy a dirtbike. Maybe its just me, but I usually dont buy 'toys' unless i have somewhere to play with them.
