moby6400. the last motorcycle accident was Hammys and he was the o ne at fault for crossing the center line . so not all accidents are by drivers of automobiles. it wasnt the drivers fault his tire blew. alot of people dont know it but tires do have an experation date. so some of the new tires you think you are buying are not new. there is a number on the tire that tells you when it was made. so the next time you buy tires ask the person you are buying them from what the ex date is.

Moby6400, I realize that you are passionate about what you write, but please be passionate for this family and not use this forum for a political or media commentary. I am sure you can find another outlet. To the entire Huber clan, those around you admire what a close and loving family you are. I pray that your closeness will help you during this tough time. Donna, Jeanne, Mary, Peggy, your friends at LSS are all thinking of you.

They also didn't say, "he wasn't wearing a helmet",,, so I would guess he had a helmet on and it wasn't reported because that might weaken the "helmet Law" stance of the national media!!

Once again though,, the headline screams "motorcycle accident",,, and once again the motorcyclist was not at fault,,, what is it with the news media anyway that they have to always make it sound bad for the motorcyclists out there,,,this isn't just the daily rag in Janesville but news media across the USA in general..

I grew up down the street from the Hubers. My brothers and I had a lot of fun with Scott and Kim. I fondly remember the Huber's garage full of motorcycle parts and some wonderful looking machines that always came out of the basement as winter turned to spring. Guys, my prayers go out to you. There aren't words that can describe what I'm sure you're going through right now. Bob was a good guy. He will be missed.

The Hubers are a wonderful family, they have a rough road ahead. I experienced a loss in the family (my brother) in June, and my sister-in-law was great, was their for our family the whole time, our loss was hard for her, now we will be there for her during the loss of her brother. Very sorry to hear about the passing of a great man, Candy-Scott-Kim, hang in there and stick together, family is the most important thing at a time like this.

Another incredible loss to the motorcycle community in this area. My heart goes out to Candy, Scott and Kim at this very painful time.

My little sister witnessed the whole thing. She was right behind the motorcycle. She was terrified, said it was just a mess. My heart goes out to the Huber family, as well as the Angileri family who must just be feeling awful. Such a tragedy...

The Hubers are a wonderful family, I grew up on the same block as them and was always so curious about Bob and his really cool motorcycles. My deepest sympathy

sounds to me like all it that it was was a tragic accident... one never knows when their tire is going to blow out... that right there will cause a car to pull... in the case of the motorcyclist, he was probably in the right place at the wrong time... my sympathies to the family

Another tragedy. I drive to Madison daily on I-90 and always worry about those on motorcycles. The traffic seems more congested each week.
