Bad news

But we all know the risks, its all about reducing them as much as you can.

one of my little "5 minutes blow the cobwebs out" rides ......

Very sad. lots on nasty junctions / unsighted bends on that little stretch. RIP fellow biker.

Just read on teletext that the van driver's been arrested. still doesn't make up for actions though, does it??? As they used to say at the start of Hill Street Blues; 'Let's be careful out there'.
