Motorcycle communication system and method

A computer-readable, non-transitory, programmable product, stored in memory of a mobile device, comprising code for causing a processor to:

• determine a rider location in connection with geo-locator input data;
• provide a user-selectable list of contacts retrieved from the mobile device;
• assemble a group, in order to form a network, based on user input;
• determine a group location in connection with processing information containing geographic locations of mobile devices within the group, and determining a geographic center of the group;
• generate a distance alert in connection with comparing rider locations to the group location, determining a rider distance based on the rider location and the group location, and determining that a rider location exceeds a predetermined threshold for the rider distance;
• determine a rider crash baseline in connection with continuously monitoring an accelerometer, determining an accelerometer average from the accelerometer's measurements over a predetermined period, monitoring a gyroscope, and determining a gyroscope average from the gyroscope's readings over a predetermined period;
• monitor for a crash in connection with comparing measurements from the accelerometer to the accelerometer average in real-time, generating a crash alert if the accelerometer measurements exceed the accelerometer average, comparing measurements from the gyroscope to the gyroscope average in real-time, generating the crash alert if the gyroscope measurements exceed the gyroscope average, adding the mobile device's geographic location to the crash alert, and causing the presentation of the crash alert on a display for a predetermined period, and causing the dispatch of the crash alert over a wireless network if the crash alert is not rejected by a user.
