NEW SMYRNA BEACH -- A woman on the back of a motorcycle whose operator collided with another biker going in the same direction on the beachside's Atlantic Avenue, became the first Bike Week-related fatality.

A woman passenger on the back of a motorcycle was killed when that bike's operator and another motorcycle going in the same direction northbound on South Atlantic, at the intersection with 5th Avenue on the beachside, collided about 4:30 p.m., New Smyrna Beach police said, with the man and woman being thrown from the bike.

Listen, my children, and you shall hear the modern charge of Paul Revere. “Say no, 'to progress,' 'yes' to fear, the Socialists are coming!”
So let’s have a tea party. Let’s gather together all the well-washed, privileged, right-wingy little neighborhood brats of banker, CEO, bullion-broker, insurance executive and pharmaceutical czar for the revolting celebration of My Dad’s Richer Than Your Dad, so I Get to Hog the Cake.
