<sarcasm>
will life insurance company pay his wife when they find out that he listened to
loud music on the road? otherwise he would have heard the train when crossing the
railroad....
btw: who will inherit the juke, if it survives the crash? ;)
</sarcasm>


ps:
hey - that's just my personal opinion too and a good meant advice to concentrate
on traffic as a biker - you always loose and you have no deformable zone like a
car. have a good and safe trip!
