This an't helping our fight with ACC

this off the net just now! R.I.P rider

A man in his 30's has died in a high speed motorbike crash in the Ngatimoti area in the Nelson region this morning.

St John Operations Team Manager Matt Wilkinson says Motueka St John Ambulance crews attempted to resuscitate the man before Summit Rescue rushed him to Nelson hospital.
However he says the man was declared dead on arrival at the Nelson Emergency department.

Best mate recently lost a family member from cardiac arrest, dropped in the bathroom.

I know it's like choosing between two buckets of shit, but premature or not, I'm leaving this place doing something I enjoy.

One of the few cons bike riding has, and always will have.

If the rider is deceased, how does this effect ACC levies? no surgery or rehab?

RIP.

Despite a catchy title, this is just another "dead biker" thread. The site's rules on those are pretty clear. That's why it's now in R&R.

sorry about that Hitcher, it was not meant to miss lead & I didn't know the rule with regard to dead biker threads, & yes I accept ignorance is not an excuse,
