Motorcyclist dies in car-bike crash | KXAN.com

An R6 rear ended a Nissan Cube at high speed when the Cube pulled out into the motorcycles path.

We are invisible. Never assume others will yield to you. Assume they will pull out in front of you and slam on their brakes. Remember 2/4/12.

I hope someone comforted him before he passed.

Another photo. I'm not sure who it was yet, but I do know that members from my riding group (Austin Sportsbike Riders) was there. That's where the photos are coming from.

May he lay in everlasting peace and eternal rest!

R.I.P !! My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

thats really upsetting. I'm sorry to hear of this tragic news. Was any foul play involved as far as the biker?

The biker was said to be speeding. I know the road well and it is very busy and certainly no place for that.

There was a second rider death in Austin last night/this morning. A friend of our group was hit by a car at 3 and killed.

That's like 5 I know of in the last few months. 4 of them were 1 connection away (friend of a friend) and the other was 100 yards from my house. Dang.
