RIP Mitch! You will be missed!
was a helmet used is my biggest question right now!!
Yes a helmet was used I believe as I’ve seen a few pictures of him riding with a grey helmet on his HD. The bigger question for me right now is how could this of been avoided and can any of the factors be used to help prevent a future accident of the same kind.
R.I.P Mitch, You lived life hard!
I would say the biggest question is whether or not he was drunk.
