FIRST PERSON/OPINION
Via e-mail:
Dear Sirs,
As the rider “allegedly” responsible for wheelieing past an SUV and causing five innocent people to be injured, I must write in to defend my name and clear my good honor. In this age of internet news and streaming media, the truth can often be an elusive mistress.
As it happens, it was the Ford Explorer that was wheelieing past me. I was calmly riding along at the posted speed limit, minding my own business, Scanning, Identifying, Predicting, Deciding and Executing, when the Explorer came roaring past on its rear wheels, the driver hanging on with one hand and flipping me the bird with the other.
When will these menaces stop?
Additionally, I was not aware that the man in the car behind me was videotaping me. The man was simply an interested tourist, capturing footage of the glorious Missouri landscape, with whom I coincidentally happen to co-own a video-production company specializing in low-budget motorcycle video sales.
Lastly, and most importantly, a Chevy Suburban is not technically an SUV. It’s a small truck. So, obviously, I’m innocent.
Thank you.
Shalom Auslander
New York, New York
PS: When that new ZX-6R coming out, boyyyy?
