It's serious.

[Banditbandit]

Bugga ... that would certainly stuff up you're track day

Can someone explain why the SCU is investigating???

They weren't "on road" so why should the SCU be involved???

SCU gets involved whenever there is or likely to be a fatality as a result of a motor vehicle accident. In an "off road/on track" incident, they feed the nessecary info to the coroner so they can make the right call as to the cause of death.

cool that makes sense. Was just thinking from the point of, on a race track crashes are part of the entry fee they're expected to happen so why the SCU, but I guess that explains it. Cheers

Tho that must mean he's really not in a good way :no:

[willytheekid]

:shit:...shit, not good.

Cheers for the SCU explaination Whitey


Thoughts are with the rider, his family & friends.:love:

Updated.

I don't want to say too much at this point, but yes he was in a bad way.

[tigertim20]

fuck. thoughts are with the rider and family

[ducatilover]

Bloody hell, I hope he makes it through, my thoughts to all around him.

[Leviticus]

The rider is Currently Stable, but in an induced Coma overnight to see if a bleed in his Brain worsens or stabilises.

Family wishes everybody thanks for their kind thoughts, but would like this to remain Private from now.

Thanks

Mark do you want this thread locked? A moderator would be able to do that.

Best wishes to you and family though.

[Jantar]

I have been in discussion with Mark about locking the thread. I am reluctant to do so as the information is already public, and if this thread is locked it is likely that another will simply pop up. It's easier to keep this thread open where the moderators can watch it.

I will ask that no information about the rider that isn't already public be posted on here.

[Marknz]

Very best wishes to family & friends. Mark & Janice

[crazy man]

does anyone one know who it is and if he or she is ok?
