looked pretty serious!!!

Post by Red5 »

I saw a pretty horrific accident the other day. Well the police and ambulnace were already there. On Rydon lane, by the school approaching middlemoor round about, if people know it.
Bike in a million pieces, rider on stretcher with neck brace.
Sure it was only precautions but...
Does anybody know them and that they're ok??

Made me stop and think a little that evening... Please all of us remember that we are on v powerful machines, and most of us aren't Rossi, Stoner.... et all.
And remember it doesn't matter who was right or wrong, being a complete knob or saintly.. you're on the bike, you lose!!! I can hardly preach I'll say that and I know we're all adults, but I just had a moment of concience on my shoulders.
Stay safe, stay happy, enjoy and lets see the summers end on the bike... :ympeace:
Don't care who you are, how much you have, how powerful you are. You still sit on the toilet with your pants around your ankles. Yep, it's a level playing field..

I Live at the other end of Rydon Lane and some people just do not respect the speed limit at all. Just because it's 4 Lanes it gets treated like a dual carriageway. Not saying that this poor fella was speeding, ( I hope he's ok ), but some other cnut might have been. :( :( :(
