    That's a real shame.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Well reading that post just brought down the start to my Sunday. Very sad when you in some small way feel connected to the person. Been a fan of PB for some years. The media will probably use this to jump on the "we don't need fast motorcycles on our roads" bandwagon.

    It's interesting how when Ronnie died on a scooter, the mainstream press didn;t touch it.

    I don't think it's a conspiracy, just that as Mark says stuff like this gets used for points scoring by "the Media". Bastards.

    THATS SAD AND THEY LOST RONNIE AS WELL, JUST SHOWS HOW DANGEROUS THESE BIKES CAN BE , EVEN THE BEST RIDERS DIE AND YOU DONT HAVE TO BE SPEEDING OR ACTING THE FOOL EITHER WHAT A LOSS . I HAVENT BOUGHT PB FOR A WHILE THEVE PRICED IT OUT OF WHAT I THINK IS REASONABLE, I THINK AMCN IS A BETTER CHEAPER ALTERNATIVE

    I can see the mainstream media and anti's having a field day over this irrespective of whether he was even at fault.

    Poor Bugger. Yea I enjoy the mag, hope nothing to much changes with it now
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods
