:'( sad to here ,RIP
This is terribly sad news. No biker goes out with the intent to end up the next statistic. Its a sad reminder how pure enjoyment is just a split second from tradegy.
Take care of yourselves out on the roads fellow bikers.
RIP
sad news...RIP
Terrible news sad to hear this,
It just goes to show you that it might be a nice warm day out there but if you havent been on your bike for a while take the first few times steady and also warm the tyres up
This particular stretch of road has received attention in the past from Speed vans, and a new flashing LED 40mph reminder.
It is quite a difficult bend to get right if you are travelling over 40mph - the camber does tend to throw you to the nearside, which is where this biker unfortunately came to rest.
It's also difficult to stay at 40mph. It just feels so slow especially with the bend to cane it around. I hear bikes screaming down the road on a daily basis as it's just behind my house.
Be it rider error, speed, road surface or whatever the cause, you never know what's around the corner.
Be careful!
