ILLINOIS: Police say 65-year-old William Opp and his 62-year-old wife Mary were riding on Highway 14 in Mulkeytown when witnesses say something happened to William Opp's rear tire and he lost control of the bike. His wife swerved trying to avoid hitting her husband. Mary, in turn, lost control of her bike. Neither of the Opps were wearing a helmet.

I wanted to comment on this article because proper following technique is important to avoid crashes just like this. Motorcycle Cruiser has an excellent article on group motorcycle riding and how to make it safe and fun for everyone.
