G/F told me that a Tri-colour CBR250RR was hit by a car this evening about 7:00 on Custom Street in town. Number plate 99WBE. He was taken to hospital and from what I know he is lucky to be alive.

Is he from KB?

Anybody got any more details?

Hope he recovers soon.

Custom St is at the bottom of Queen St. It runs parallel to Quay Street. Hope he comes out ok.

I was just wondering if anybody had anymore information.

Never good to hear things like this.... Ride safe.

I think they are. Lately my rate of "wot the holy f*ck are you thinking of doing - and whatever it is don't do it if you know what's wise for you" moments has gone from 1 every day or so to about 2 a day.

Personally, I blame the French.
