Sadly an accident or error of judgement when on a motorcycle doesn't leave much wriggle room when it comes to the difference between injury and death.

Condolences to you and your family.

Cheers swoop. i agree, i only ventured onto the road once on a motorbike, and i had 2 motorcross bikes for a few years. just not worth the risk IMO. His brother and a mate were behind him and saw the whole thing, apparently the truck changed lanes to turn with no indicator, he had no where to go. Just awful. its been a very long day, cheers everyone, appreciated.

I'm glad we agree. Do you mind if I tell other people. Do you still have 2 motorcross bikes for a few years ?

The death of Sudan the last male Northern white rhino. And they still have to have armed guards for his surviving daughter and grand daughter. SOme Indonesian animals are going the same way. At least he lived a reasonable life but it would be much better if he could have roamed about with his herd on the plains of Kenya and laid down under a tree and passed away. Mankind is full of bastards.
Annoying opposition supporters since 1967.

About to go and say farewell to our adored 13 year old Lab Rajah, such a beautiful companion we will miss him terribly. We found out that he has a tumour on his spleen.

Cheers old boy!
