    hope it was no one on here!!
    really bad but many witnesses say rider fault, feel sorry for the firemen who had to deal with it.

    So sad, RIP

    Sad of course it is, according to some comments on Facepest, he was riding like he stole it, narrowly avoiding crashing minutes earlier.

    My neighbour was an eyewitness. Bad all round. Very sad.

    I've been talking to a friend of mine this morning that is Emergency services. Apparently the guy had been spotted 3 times between Bumpers farm and Corsham caning it to the extent that the back end was fishtailing. Sadly there's a lot more than that to be said but out of respect i'm not going to until the case is clearer. However, it was very true that the 30mph signs in Corsham were ignored. I do feel for the 4 people in the car that experienced him coming toward them though.

    There's usually a back story, I'd imagine something made the rider ride like that. Horrible for everyone involved, emergency services included

    I kept the story off the posting , but got the aftermath from a fireman I work with, they got there at 8.30 and left gone 1am. he had a few minutes in the toilet during the day.
    two wheels should be on the ground at that time of day.
    maybe as Dabz said there maybe a story behind but unfortunately we have had a few friends and customers who have ended up the same way. its the family you have to feel sorry for.
    present company included.
