3915...Culling The Herd In Onondaga

That's a town near Syracuse. I saw this piece in the Brain Injury Blog. Yeah, I read everything.

In a story reported by The Post-Standard of Syracuse and the Associated Press, the man killed in the accident Saturday was identified as Philip Contos, 55, of Parish, N.Y. He was riding a 1983 Harley Davidson as part of a group — the Onondaga County chapter of American Bikers Aimed Towards Education (ABATE) — that was rather unwisely protesting the helmet law by not wearing helmets.

The bike fishtailed, our helmetless hero was launched over the handlebars, did a face plant and, I presume, at the millisecond before said face plant wished he had a full face on.

Culling the herd.
