Have just had a call from Wilts radio who have said that a biker was killed yesterday morning in Swindon at 10.30. RIP to the rider - I can't find any further details at this stage

Thanks Mitch - was 10.30pm then not am as I was told
RIP :(
I'm on the radio at drivetime today talking about it - was put on the spot so heaven knows what I ended up saying :confused:
Boy done good...very good. I'd be crawling out the door on all fours if they pointed a mike at me.Quote:

The sad report is the rider clipped the roundabout. It only takes one little lapse of concentration, an animal, a car driver etc etc etc....
Can't say I enjoyed the experience!Quote:

Well done James, very professional.
Like Burbler, I'd run a mile at the thoughts of doing an interview on the radio or TV.
Think you did a great job.
RIP for the biker
Well done Dabz
Sorry to hear this
I thought that interview was a usually fair and free of sensation. You did well there James - some very valid points. Sadly they got their numbers wrong, it is 6 not 4 counting the young lad on the moped at Longbridge Deverill and the Vespa rider at Semley (a guy in his 40s from London who made a shocking 2cm or so of page space in the Wiltshire Times)
Car driver has now been arrested for causing death by dangerous driving
Yep, great you came across wellJames, RachQuote:
