<p><em><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-3946" title="fatal-motorcycle-accident" src="http://www.russbrown.com/motorcycle-lawyer-blog/dls/fatal-motorcycle-accident1-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" />Russ Brown Attorneys:</em> If you died 3 times after a horrific motorcycle accident, would you want to ever ride again? Well according to 52-year-old Gary Brennan, there is no question in his mind—the answer is YES. Brennan suffered a head on collision with a car while riding his Ducati Hypermotard and was confirmed dead at the scene of the accident. Yet paramedics didn’t give up on the 52-year-old grandfather and they continued to resuscitate him. His heart stopped two more times while in the hospital, and surgeons and doctors said that he had some of the worst injuries they had ever seen. He had a major brain bleed, fractured spine in 3 places, collapsed lung, two broken shoulder blades, a broken pelvis, crushed kidney, torn liver, and a variety of other broken bones. He was in a coma for 6 weeks and has required 38 operations since his horrific motorcycle accident.</p>
<p><span id="more-3944"></span></p>
<p>Yet in spite of all his death-defying injuries, Gary Brennan has vowed to get back on his bike after he recovers completely. Most of the world will never understand that type of passion—yet many motorcyclists who ride do. If you love motorcycling completely, then you understand the need to get back on your bike—no matter what happens. This passion for riding is what drives many disabled motorcyclists to have their bikes customized to accommodate for their disability. Special handlebars, pedals, side wheels, and seating can help injured motorcyclists like Gary Brennan get back to doing what they love—riding.</p>
<p>Miraculously, most of Gary’s injuries have healed completely, even though the motorcycle accident has left him with chronic pain. As soon as his right leg is healed, he will attempt to get back on his bike. Without the amazing medical support he received initially following his accident, Gary would not be here today. In fact, it is a miracle that he survived at all.</p>
<p>Gary, we look forward to seeing you back on the road!!!</p>
<p>At <a href="http://www.russbrown.com/" target="_blank">Russ Brown Motorcycle Attorneys</a>, we know why you ride and we share your passion for life on 2 wheels.

<p><em><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-3933" title="rolling thunder washington motorcycle ride" src="http://www.russbrown.com/motorcycle-lawyer-blog/dls/sturgis-3-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" />Russ Brown Motorcycle Attorneys:</em> The Rolling Thunder 25<sup>th</sup> Anniversary Ride for Freedom is rapidly approaching and all supporters are welcome to attend. While thousands of Rolling Thunder members will be there to support this amazing event, it is important to know that you do not have to be a member to ride!</p>
<p><span id="more-3932"></span></p>
<p><strong><em>So what is Rolling Thunder?</em></strong></p>
<p>In 1995, Rolling Thunder was incorporated with over 90 chartered chapters throughout the United States. While many of Rolling Thunder’s members are motorcyclists and many are veterans, neither is a prerequisite for joining. All members are united for a very specific cause—to bring full accountability for Prisoners of War and Missing in Action soldiers. They believe in reminding the government, media, and public about these missing soldiers so the world will never forget them or their contribution.</p>
<p>The first official gathering of the Rolling Thunder group was in 1988 when veterans and family members met during the 1988 Memorial Day weekend in Washington D.C. They decided to arrive on motorcycles to sound like the 1965 North Vietnam bombing campaign titled “Operation Rolling Thunder”. Word quickly spread through the veteran network, and in 1988, approximately 2500 motorcyclists from all over the United States attended the rally. They decided to continue these traditions until all POW/MIA were accounted for. Since then the Memorial Day weekend Ride for Freedom has grown to an estimate 900,000 motorcyclists!</p>
<p>If you would like to join the nearly 1 million bikers who will be attending this year’s Ride for Freedom, you can find more information at the <a href="http://www.rollingthunder1.com/" target="_blank">Rolling Thunder site</a>. The event will kick off on Friday, May 25<sup>th</sup> at the Molly Pitcher Rest Stop at the NJ Turnpike at 9:00 and conclude that evening with a candle light vigil by the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. During the event, there will be a barbeque, wreath presentations at various memorials, guest speakers, and even a bike raffle drawing for a new Harley Davidson.</p>
<p>The Rolling Thunder Memorial Ride is just one of many amazing rides and rallies you can attend this summer season throughout the United States. There are numerous causes you can support along the way, such as breast cancer awareness, autism research, and more—just pick your favorite and RIDE!</p>
<p>No matter where you ride this summer season, it is important to have an experienced motorcycle accident attorney on your side. The <a title="experienced motorcycle lawyer" href="http://www.russbrown.com/" target="_blank">Russ Brown Motorcycle Attorneys</a> understand your passion for riding and we are dedicated to helping you do what you love to do—ride! That’s why we started BAM, a free roadside and legal assistance program for bikers! Call us today to learn more at <strong>1-800-4-BIKERS</strong>.</p>

<p><em>Russ Brown Motorcycle Attorneys</em>: With gas prices at an all time high, many motorcyclists are putting off plans to make weekend runs and trips, but if you live in California you may be able to make a fun weekend run even if you are on a budget by taking advantage of California State Parks, Beaches and Camping.</p>
<p>Years ago, visiting California State parks, beaches and campground’s was an attractive and inexpensive way to enjoy a vacation while trying to save some money, but in recent years the cost of enjoying these state resources has become so expensive that they have lost their appeal by those who used to enjoy them.</p>
<p>After doing some research at the California State Parks website (<a href="http://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=1049" target="_blank">http://www.parks.ca.gov/?<wbr>page_id=1049</wbr></a>), I found some little known facts that can actually make including them in a weekend or day run fun again.</p>
<p>Every State park has a day access or user fee and additional fees for camping, but if you are a veteran, over 62 or meet other certain requirements those high fees are waived or substantially reduced. This makes utilizing State parks and campground highly attractive in planning a fun get away or weekend run while helping you save money. Of course you are gonna have to spend some money on gas, food and other essentials, but by cutting costs for camping and park access you make your run more affordable.</p>
<p>If you are planning to only take advantage of camping resources, then you will want to make sure you book a reservation to be sure you have a spot saved for you. Many popular State Parks that offer camping are regularly booked as they are almost cheaper than using KOA or other camping sites.</p>
<p>Costs for camping are still lower than most other campgrounds, and offer options for RV’s as well. If you are planning to use a tent, the average cost is around $10 per night, and one camping spot includes up to 8 people. Amenities vary at every campground, but you can find out what each one includes on the State parks website.</p>
<p>I personally like using Google maps to view my routes when planning runs, because with Google maps you can view surrounding attractions, and resources such as gas stations, grocery stores etc, and once you have created a travel itinerary you can save in “My Places” for future review in your smart phone, and if you don’t own a smart phone you can easily print out a simple text version of your itinerary for reference later.</p>
<p>And remember, when hitting the road this summer, regardless of where you are going in the US, make sure to have your BAM card in your wallet.  <a title="motorcycle lawyer BAM law" href="http://www.russbrown.com/what-is-bam.html">BAM, Free Breakdown and Legal Assistance for Motorcyclists</a> is a volunteer network of bikers helping bikers in emergency roadside situations and free legal advice anywhere in the US.</p>

<p><a title="experienced aggressive biker lawyer" href="http://www.russbrown.com/motorcycle-accident-lawyer.html"><em>Russ Brown Injury Attorneys:</em></a> I love getting to meet so many awesome women motorcyclists. Today we have Preschool Teacher Ashley upgrading the pavement! Let’s meet her…</p>
<p>Name: Ashley Bleadorn</p>
<p>Location: Alpine, CA (outside San Diego)</p>
<p>Occupation: Preschool Teacher! I teach 3 and 4 year old kiddos.</p>
<p><strong>Currently rides</strong>: As of 4:30pm on 5/4/12, I ride a 2011 Heritage Softail Classic!! I just bought myself a new motorcycle J but, before that my first motorcycle was a 2009 Sportster 1200 Custom and I put 10,000 miles on it in 9 months.</p>
<p><strong>When did you start riding and what got you involved in motorcycles?</strong></p>
<p>I started riding almost exactly one year ago. I got my license at the end of May 2011, started riding my own bike, and never stopped. Whenever anybody asks me how I started riding or how I got involved I always tell them that “I was born to ride”. My dad rode a motorcycle for a long time before I was born, so it’s in my blood. But, really, I got into Harley’s when my husband’s parents started getting into them a few years back. Last year my husband and his Dad rode to Sturgis 2011 on Harley’s and I started to ride on the back of my husband’s before they left. Well, soon riding on the back was just not enough for me and I needed to fulfill the rider inside of me. So, I took the Rider’s Edge Course and here I am today!</p>
<p><strong>How has riding motorcycles impacted your life?<img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-3916" title="hitting the pavement motorcycle" src="http://www.russbrown.com/motorcycle-lawyer-blog/dls/21-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></strong></p>
<p>Riding has changed everything for me! Riding fulfills me and besides being super fun, it’s a challenge. But, the biggest way it has impacted me is through the friendships I’ve made. I have made so many wonderful friendships because of riding and I can’t be more thankful for it.</p>
<p><strong>What has been your biggest challenge with riding?</strong></p>
<p>Ugh…U-turns. U-turns for me used to be really hard (sometimes I still cringe at the thought of them…). When I took the Rider’s Edge Class I completely failed the Figure-8 box. Failed it! After that I vowed to never do another U-turn again. Well, that didn’t last long…soon after getting my license I went riding with a bunch of my friends and sure enough, we had to do a U-turn. Well, I flailed through the u-turn, got my bike around poorly and finished the ride. However, after that particular ride, I went straight to an empty parking lot and practiced U-turns until I was blue in the face. It took me 5 minutes to nail right hand U-turns, 5 minutes to nail left hand U-turns, and the last 5 minutes were just celebratory circles in front of the boys who were watching me. I don’t mind U-turns any more.</p>
<p><strong>What do you like most about your model motorcycle? </strong></p>
<p>The leather and the studs…that’s right, you heard me.</p>
<p><strong>What modifications have you made?</strong></p>
<p>I only made a few cosmetic modifications to my Sportster. I put a new Mustang solo seat on it, braids on the levers, custom grips and pegs, custom Arlen Ness Mirrors, and a tinted Memphis Shade’s windshield. If I had kept my Sportster I would have put 12 inch ape hanger handle bars and new pipes on it. As far as my Heritage goes, there are no modifications on it yet. Oh, but don’t worry, I’m working on it…</p>
<p><strong>When you’re not riding motorcycles what are your other interests?</strong></p>
<p>I have a lot of different interests. My husband and I are huge outdoor people. We hike/ backpack, camp, rock climb, and ski/snowboard. I am also an artist (I love painting the most) and a gym rat…I love to workout.</p>
<p><strong>What advice do you have for other women riders?</strong></p>
<p>For the women who ride currently…KEEP GOING! For the women who want to ride and are afraid…don’t let fear dictate your life. You will miss out on so many wonderful opportunities if you never take a risk. Riding will change your life for the better. GO FOR IT!</p>
<p><strong>How tall are you?</strong> 5’5”</p>
<p><strong>What is the seat height of your bike?</strong> Approximately 27”.</p>
<p><strong>What is your weather like year round?</strong> San Diego is sunny and warm all year round!</p>
<p><strong>How is riding therapy for you?</strong></p>
<p>Oh man…riding is…the best. It’s a stress reliever for me. When I ride I’m just concentrating on the road or I’m in a zone where I’m not thinking about all of the stress of the day or what I have to do tomorrow. I’m just rollin’ down the road and having fun! I am honored to be featured. I hope that I can help inspire women everywhere to ride with this article and give back a little bit of what riding has given me.”</p>

<p>What I see in Ashley is her passion and joy of riding expressed in her words, but felt in many of us. Damn we are lucky to live in a moto world!</p>
<p>Ride ON!</p>

<p><span id="more-3908"></span></p>
<p><a title="experienced motorcycle lawyer" href="http://www.russbrown.com/sturgis-motorcycle-lawyers.html"><em>Russ Brown Injury Attorneys</em></a>: How do you have a heck of a lot of fun, set an example, honor your history, uphold tradition, and cover ground proudly?  Girl, climb on a motorcycle!  That’s how the Motor Maids do it.  The group is made up of many types of women, but every one of them is passionate about riding, safety and fun.</p>
</div>
<div></div>
<div>Motor Maids, Incorporated was established in 1940, by two ladies who wanted to make it easier for females to ride. (And safer!  Before that time, the few women on cycles were often harassed!)</p>
</div>
<div></div>
<div>The women who rode motorcycles before Motor Maids came into being had to be even more brave than skilled.  They fought the prevailing prejudices of the time, that &#8220;nice girls don&#8217;t ride bikes,&#8221; and every pioneer female rider had stories of being run off the road, or hassled.  One female rider was arrested on an early 1900&#8242;s cross-country trek, for &#8220;wearing men&#8217;s clothes!&#8221;</p>
</div>
<div></div>
<div>Linda Dugeau learned to ride a motorcycle in 1932, and the tours she took were so daring that they began showing up as stories in <em>Motorcyclist </em>magazine. By 1938, she began working to set up a national network of female motorcyclists &#8212; not just ladies who rode in sidecars, but women who owned and rode their own cycles.  The late 1930s was still a rough time for females, and cycle-riding ladies were rare &#8212; it took three years of organizing, for Linda and her friend Dot Robinson to find enough female riders to organize The Motor Maids. The organization was chartered in 1941.</p>
</div>
<div></div>
<div>Linda didn&#8217;t like the spotlight, so she stayed in the background as the international vice president while Dot served as president for 25 years.  Dot was as dedicated to makeup and fashion as she was to riding, and she logged about 50,000 miles a year  promoting the image of the Motor Maids and female riders.  More than seven decades later, Motor Maids are still committed to safety and cycle education, and about 1200 women are members of the Motor Maids family.  What does it take to be a Motor Maid?  Female riders can join, if you meet the requirements: you have to own a motorcycle, or have access through a family member; you have to ride that cycle; and you must present a positive image of women motorcyclists.</p>
</div>
<div></div>
<div>Harleys, Hondas, Suzukis, Yamahas, Ducatis, BMWs, Indians, Triumphs, Victorys, Vagabonds &#8212; the bikes are as diverse as the riders.</p>
</div>
<div></div>
<div>Dot passed away in late 1999, and Linda passed away four months later, in February of 2000.  Their creation, Motor Maids, is the first women&#8217;s motorcycling organization in North America, and it’s the longest continuously-operated women’s cycling association. (That&#8217;s &#8220;longest,&#8221; guys &#8212; ladies don’t say “oldest!”) Now more than a thousand women in North America belong to Motor Maids, Inc., and the membership grows every year.  The national conventions each July are in different districts across the country:  this year’s convention will be in South Carolina, and 2013 is set for Oregon!</p>
</div>
<div></div>
<div>It is women like Linda and Dot that opened the road ahead for all of us so we can share the road and the feeling of freedom motorcycling brings.   This year the Sturgis Buffalo Chip® and Sturgis Motorcycle Museum and Hall of Fame are partnering to bring rally goers a special new exhibit called “Paving the Way” – The women of the Motorcycle Hall of Fame.  This exhibit will showcase the women who have been inducted into the Hall of Fame , historic women’s riding memorabilia, bikes and gear over the years.  The exhibit will be featured at the Sturgis Buffalo Chip and a part of the Biker Belles™ charity event.   If you would like to celebrate these and other wonderful women in our lives, please join us Wednesday August 8<sup>th</sup>.    For more information please visit <a href="http://www.bikerbelles.com" target="_blank">www.bikerbelles.com</a> or call <a href="tel:605-347-9000" target="_blank">605-347-9000</a>.</p>

Most states recognize this as a great month to remind other drivers to watch out for motorcyclists on the roadway. There are more than 7 million registered motorcycles in the United States and the warmer summer months mean that many of them will be hitting America’s roadways in search of some sun and fun. By reminding other drivers to become more aware of motorcyclists on the roads, the NHTSA hopes to help decrease the number of serious and fatal motorcycle accidents across the country.</p>
<p><span id="more-3903"></span></p>
<p>Motorcycle Awareness Month is also supposed to remind us motorcyclists to take the safety precautions we need to prevent serious motorcycle accidents from occurring. You know the saying  &#8211; the best defense is a good offense.  So what can you do to help prevent a serious motorcycle accident?</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Take a Safety Course:</strong> All motorcyclists are encouraged to take a motorcyclist safety program in their area in order to brush up on their safety skills. In California, the California Motorcyclist Safety Program has trained over 800,000 motorcycle riders alone and expects to train an additional 65,000 motorcyclists this year.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><strong>Watch Blind Spots:</strong> In addition to taking a safety riding course, motorcyclists should be careful not to ride in other motorists’ blind spots—especially large trucks.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><strong>Avoid Lane Splitting:</strong> If lane splitting is permitted in your state, remember that other motorists may not expect you to be riding in between the lanes. If you do choose to ride in between the lanes, do so cautiously and carefully.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><strong>Use Extra Caution at Intersections:</strong> The majority of motorcycle accidents occur at intersections when other drivers fail to notice oncoming motorcyclists. When riding through an intersection, use extra caution and reduce your speed if possible. Use your headlights even in the daytime to improve your visibility and let others know of your presence.</li>
</ul>
<p>Have a great riding season and let&#8217;s ensure 2012 is the best for us motorcyclists yet!</p>

<p><a title="motorcycle lawyer biker accident" href="http://www.russbrown.com/motorcycle-lawyer-blog/3796/its-big-wednesday-in-sturgis.html"><em>Russ Brown Motorcycle Attorneys</em></a>: The summer months are a great time to catch up on your reading, and bookworms often bring their reading treasures to pools, beaches, and picnics. If you are looking for an interesting read this summer, look no further than Lisa Petrocelli’s book, <em>The Gloves Come Off</em>. This in-depth look at America’s biker culture is sure to please your inner motorcycle god or goddess.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve all seen them—leather clad bikers gleefully cruising down the road with the wind whipping through their hair. While these motorcycle gods may come from different states, different cultural backgrounds, and different socio-economic levels, they all share one important thing in common—their love of motorcycling.</p>
<p>Lisa Petrocelli has spent the last 10 years meeting and interviewing a number of bikers, power club members (Warlocks), and traditional club members. She then carefully compiled this research into a delightful motorcycle book. Each chapter portrays the character of a particular biker and offers readers a glimpse into life “under the gloves”. Why do they ride? What drives their passion for motorcycling? All these questions are answered in a fun and delightful read that is hard to put down—especially if you love motorcycles like we do. If you love motorcycling or have ever wondered what drives these men to a life on two wheels, then this is definitely a must-read book for you.</p>
<p><strong>About the Author:</strong></p>
<p>Lisa Petrocelli is an Albany, New York native and mother of three. She is also the editor of New York Rider Magazine and spends her free time researching motorcycle events and motorcycle clubs in New York and surrounding states. Her fascination with the American biker subculture prompted her to write this book, and introduce others to the wonderful world of motorcycling.</p>
<p>I met Lisa, for the first time,  four years ago at the International Motorcycle Show in New York City and she quickly became one of my favorite people in the motorcycle industry and I always looking forward to the next biker event where I will get to see her again.</p>

<p><a title="sturgis rally 2012 motorcycle lawyer" href="http://www.buffalochip.com">The Sturgis Buffalo Chip Campground</a> and the Sturgis Rally experience just keeps getting better and better. And this year is no exception. The newest addition to the Sturgis Buffalo Chip is sure to enhance your rally experience. Located three miles outside of Sturgis, SD and away from all the traffic on Lazelle St, the Crossroads will provide visitors a Free access area at the Sturgis Buffalo Chip where rally attendees, not staying at the legendary Campground, will be able to visit friends, check out vendors, and enjoy food, drinks, and music at the new Sturgis Rider Cafe, an open air pavilion and the center piece at the Crossroads.  Until now, visitors who wished to visit their friends who were staying at the Buffalo Chip Campground had to pay to enter the Campground site. Now, they will be able to visit their friends, enjoy some great food, drinks, and incredible music all FREE of charge.</p>
<p>While the Crossroads has been planned for years, this is the year Sturgis Rally motorcyclists will actually get to experience this amazing, free entertainment area. If you are heading to the 2012 Sturgis Motorcycle Rally this year, then you’ll get to see the Crossroads firsthand. The Crossroads gives motorcyclists who are attending the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and the general public an opportunity to look at why the Sturgis Buffalo Chip Campground is legendary, including custom bikes, shops, vendors, and live music.</p>
<p>Even if you don’t plan on staying at the Buffalo Chip Campground, the Crossroads will enable you to experience more of the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and meet up with friends and family members who are staying there. Best of all, since it is located 3 miles outside of Sturgis, SD, you can also escape some of the traffic that is always present inside of the city limits.</p>
<p>I personally love staying at the Legendary Buffalo Chip.  From the time I get my morning coffee in the amphitheater at the Coffee Crib (great coffee and great people), to enjoying the afternoon entertainment right through to the great concert line-up at night.  It&#8217;s all there and I will be there in August 2012!</p>
<p>This year, <a href="http://www.russbrown.com/" target="_blank">Russ Brown Motorcycle Attorneys</a> is proud to once again be a part of the Sturgis Buffalo Chip family. If you are at the rally this year, be sure to come by and check us out and learn more about BAM, our free roadside and legal assistance program.
