And sometimes, if you're inexperienced and don't know how to corner, a helmet makes no difference...
Quote: A man from Conrad died after rolling his motorcycle several times outside of Lincoln on Sunday.
The Montana Highway Patrol reports that the 60-year old male was traveling west on Highway 200 ascending into Rogers Pass when he man made a sharp left hand turn and drifted into the right hand lane.
He then lost control on loose gravel and rolled over several times.
The victim was air-lifted to Benefis hospital in Great Falls, where he was pronounced dead.
Authorities say that speed and alcohol were not factors in the accident and add that the victim was wearing a helmet when he crashed.
I've been on that road several times and I can't fathom how an experienced rider could wreck. It's not that curvy. It's in good shape and has plenty of shoulder.
