That's a pretty good argument for not riding in the front of a center

I hadn't given much thought to the vulnerable position people up front in a
bow-rider are in until now. Read a couple more articles today: They
confirmed that the cause of death was head trauma. The woman who was killed
owned a marina up in Michigan and her husband had recently died a little
freakishly of complications from a shoulder operation.
