I read a tragic story in the paper today about a Fatal Upper Peninsula Motorcycle Accident near Mesick, Michigan  yesterday. According to the Wexford County Sheriff’s Department, an Arlington couple were travelling on a motorcycle on M-115, near the intersection of M-37, when a van pulling a camper allegedly turned in front of them. The bikers’ motorcycle struck the van causing serious and life threatening injuries to the bikers. The bikers were transported to Munson Medical Center where they subsequently died. Police are still investigating the accident.

I  am very sorry to hear that this tragic motorcycle accident happened. My condolences go out to the family and friends of the bikers.
