Drove up the Angeles Crest Highway in the Cobra to have lunch at Newcomb Ranch - a picture postcard day to drive in the mountains. And we stayed there for 4 long hours. The Crest Highway is a well known death trap for motocycle maniacs & one had an unfortunate meeting with the front of a fire truck, an obvious fatality that closed down the 2 for four hours. My wife commented on two guys in full red leathers screaming down the mountain as we motored up to the ranch.
By all eyewitness accounts - the victim and his companion fit the description. We saw the truck on the way down. It looked like a car had collided with it.
If driving a Cobra recklessly is suicide - these bikers are on a different planet.
