Re: [ST] What's that in the road? A head?

[Wesley Horner <wesman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

A few months ago I was going west on I-80  and a bicycle fell off the roof rack
of a subaru in front of me.  A minivan was the first thing over it.  The van 
got mostly the rear wheel.  Then a Harly riding 2 up in the lane to the left of
the mini van caught the bike as it flew into that lane.  The Harley went
over it right in the middle of the the fram of the bicycle.  By the time it
was my turn to hit the bike everything had slowed down enough that I was 
able to drive around it.  The Harley pulled over to check for damage and
the subaru dissapeared.

My old sig was about Vaxen and VMS but I can't even figure out 
the name of the company that owns them anymore.
