January 24, 2012 - I want to remind all of you that we need to be careful out there. Most of you know I am a rider. Most of the folks think motorcycle accidents are typically street related. Here is a story that contradicts that. According to reports a desert motorcycle racer was killed in the desert over the weekend.
According to reports the motorcyclist was found on Sunday at approximately 1:15 p.m. in the desert approximately 150 feet off of a designated course. According to San Bernardino County Deputy Coroner Investigator Jeff Lewison, experienced motorcycle racer Lance Black age 45 entered the race endorsed by the Desert Motorcycle Club and was found approximately 150 feet off of the designated track dead.
According to the president of the Desert Motorcycle Club Rick Nuss, the experienced motorcyclist was approximately six to seven miles in the second course of the race traveling at a high rate of speed. Black is believed to have lost control of the bike and died on impact, Nuss said.
Nuss stated that there were no witnesses to the motorcycle crash and it occurred in an area where there were no obstacles that would be dangerous. Nuss said that Black was an expert level racer and belonged to the American Motorcyclist Association District 37.
According to Lewiston Black was pronounced dead at the scene of the motorcycle crash. According to reports Black leaves a wife and two children. There is no word on whether there is a rider fund set up for the family. We will keep you posted if there is any way the family can be helped.
