RIP Fallen Biker (21 July)

didn`t know the person , but it still feels like losing a friend, R.I.P

Rode past there just after they had blocked off the road, wanted to know the details, knowing a couple of guys out east on bikes. Asked the police what bike it was, but she didn’t know. Talked to her about what happened, she was understandably vague. All I heard her say was that it could have been a yellow or blue bike, but she wasn’t at all certain, she was more certain that it was a "sports type" bike.

Sorry to hear, it’s close to home when anybody gets hurt, but when it happens on your neighborhood…

Condolences to the family, my thoughts are with you.

Just want to say, isn't weird how most of us have never met this fellow and all of a sudden it feels like you have lost an arm or a leg. The biking fraternity is so close that when a rider goes down for good, it hurts real bad and brings a tear to the eye.

You don't get this with a group of cagers. Empathy is deep amongst bikers and it's a good thing in this age of machoism.

Thanks for the phone call zapf...

I saw some bikes there (some naked vtwin I didn't know, and a black zx10, *I think* - I was in the middle of traffic, he/she was oncoming... def a big black sportsbike), but would have been about 1610... Coming back through there after visiting a client, at 1840 ish, all shut, and havoc in the area with cars all trying to get around the road. Did 60km for a normal 22km round trip.
