Nick sure was lucky - looks like he's wearing a ball cap on top of that.

Very lucky obviously. I tell my friends who ride motorcycles, it isn't you and your motorcycle I don't trust, it's the other drivers.

That is nuts. Looks like another FSU player that drives a motorcycle stopped because of that accident. Hes lucky as hell, no way in hell I would ever ride one of those things.

My brother is still recovering from an accident on June 27, 2012 very similar to that. A school bus pulled out in front of him and then actually ran over him trapping him beneath the bus for 45 minutes. Birdman37, I wouldn't ride one either.

He's extremely lucky he cleared the vehicle, and his bike, and had a clear path to decelerate. The driver was obviously at fault, but it looks like O'Leary was really moving down the street, too fast for evasive action.

When I worked at an ER in college, the nurses called them "donorcycles" because of all the organ donations from motorcycle accidents.

They may have called them "donorcycles" but I recently lost a cousin much the same way. He was an organ donor, and with all of the protective gear he was wearing, unlike O'Leary, the hospital couldn't even save his corneas for possible transplant.
I had 1 experience on a motorcycle at the age of 10. I hopped on it, the exhaust burned my leg, and I hopped right off. NEVER been on another!!

I have a 2009 Honda Rebel for sale... baby on the way... cheap. Seriously. If anyone still wants one, message me.

I rode off-road from 5 (starting on a Honda Mini Trail 50) until 16 (Honda Elsinore 250 - great bike), and rode it a short distance on the road working at a nearby farm as a 14 and 15 year old. My Dad told me the day I turned 16, the motorcycles would disappear from our place, and they did. He said you always lose on a bike, whether it's the ground or any other object.

He's way lucky. I had all always wanted a Harley then last summer my brother in law was killed by a truck of kids speeding and running a red light, so now I don't want one even in the slightest.
