    On the way back from the ride out yesterday - the road from Collingbourne Ducis to Burbage (A338) was closed due to an accident. I have just heard on the news it was a female biker who lost control of her bike. She is aged 31 and from Newbury and is sadly in a critical condition. Has anyone else heard the news? I can't see anything online about it. Fingers crossed the rider is ok :-/ :-/ :-/

    Don't quote me on this but there was a road closure yesterday due to an accident, and they wouldn't let them reopen the road until the potholes had been filled in...

    That explains why I had to detour via the farm to get home. Hope she's OK, local gossip has it that it was on the s bends out of Burbage which is renowned for accidents. Road is in good condition there so will have to wait and see.

    Get well soon.

    I love those bends.

    The first left hander from Burbage to Tidworth catches a lot of people out though.

    Let's hope she's ok.
