There's a lot of talk about road IDs and riding in the boonies ... just this past week we had a fatality in a nearby town.
Basically, he took a corner where the road was not in good shape, too fast; there was a dropoff to a drainage ditch, BAD FALL, major head injuries & broken vertebrae. Apparently not discovered for some time (but still alive; died a week later).
He wasn't really that far out into the boonies, either.
