Bob Kravitz's 2-Minute Blitz: Peter Lenz, Brandon Rush, Colts

[mike148r]

yea its sucks what happened. I lost a friend who was riding and someone clipped him from the side

I love bikes and riding, but I think letting a kid do that is just stupid. If your not even old enough to get your license, you shouldn't be going 120MPH. Most kids that age couldn't handle speeds of 60MPH let alone 120MPH. Think of all the student drivers, they're 15/16 and they make me want to punch a baby. Death grip on the wheel doing 50 on the highway. I hope that he RIP, but I don't agree with that at all. At least get your license and ride on the street for a while first.

Motorcycle racing is risky, its not realy high risk. Since my first CMRA race in 2001 there have been NO FATALITIES during a CMRA event.

[deabreu]

why does his 2-minute blitz lasts for 3 minutes?

[mike148r]

You guys are not cool man this kid died doing what he love so put urself in his shoes aswell with Brandon

so don't talk shit

[nigoroku]

@mike148r amen to that, i was thinking the same thing, R.I.P. Peter Lenz

[sdry]

parents know their kid can possibly die doing tis. Yeah they are "wired" to benefit financially from them so they dont matter.

griffinfox66 YOU ARE A FKING IDIOT - Talent in these sports starts with young introduction, as your career is pretty much over in your mid 30's. If you're not competitive by the your early teens you likely will never see a MotoGP. Peter was a mega talented rider and had superstar potential not only because he had natural talent and had developed a high level of skill through training, but because his parents sacraficed their own fears, time, and money for something their child had passion for.

[griffinfox66]

This idiot says it's in their DNA to race. My GOD!!! Your kid is a child on a machine that his feet dont even touch the ground... and you're letting him ride 'cos it's in his DNA??? Sounds like poor parents. Well, I hate to sound harsh on this but... the parents fk'd up... and now your son is DEAD!!! Good job... mom and dad!

[nkkeisuke]

@griffinfox66 Just because you were born a talent-less judgemental b*tch and you parents never let you follow you dreams doesn't make Lenz's parents bad parents. This is a sport with inherent dangers just as any sport. Deaths like this aren't common, this is the first in 9 years for the UGPRU, genius. Read up about the something before you comment, making assumptions based on stereotypes of motorcycles just proves how ignorant you are...YOU probably vote based on what people tell you. Dumb*ss.

[rochestermi248]

I disagree that a 13 yearold knows the true meaning of death. While Im sure Peter was more than happy racing, but unless he has seen a parent or immediate famly member die I doubt he truely understood the meaning of death. I lost my mom at 10 years old and I didnt really understand until I was 15. Death is not easily comprehinsible to our youth. That is why suicide rates are much higher among our youth. I agree with the rest of his points. It definitely is not his parents fault, RIP PETER

[GmanIX9]

Well said!!

[a2birdcage]

Totally agree.

[duponaly]

Nice commentary.  I totally agree!

[bchaveezy]

here here Bob, Peter Lenz is a true tragedy. The brighter the star burns, the sooner it goes out. Peter will be missed but I'm positive if it were between passing away doing what he loved and giving up the sport, he would have rode into the sunset never to be seen again..
