On a bigger scale, it was the kiddos time to go. There could have been signs up all over the place and 100 of the best riders in the world sanction that jump. It wouldn't have mattered. As for all of the people jumping on the band wagon, I deal with it every day being in the Army. One day we are heroes and the next we are rapists and killers. Just food for thought. If the young man was just out on TVA or BLM land and died jumping hills, who would they all blame then? 06 Rhino 660 Innova Mud Tires Custom Rims Underhood and Cockpit lights Fog lights Custom built pre-runner/brush guard    Report
