R O T

rot

The ROT (Republic of Texas) motorcycle rally brought thousands of bikes and 100 thousand plus visitors to Austin this weekend.  It is the biggest bike rally in Texas, and one of the largest in the country, featuring parades, concerts and a whole lot of partying.

This year, Austin police report three bikers lost their lives in separate accidents within the first 24 hours of the weekend-long event.  Our own son-in-law is in the hospital with a broken wrist, various cuts and bruises, and some internal bleeding that the doctors say should correct itself without surgery.  I guess he got lucky.
