A pity he wasn't wearing a leather jacket and textile trousers. Would've settled the argument of which are more waterproof.
Regardless, it's good to read that the rider is okay and not another fatality. At least the truck driver fronted up and admitted he wasn't looking. Also he made a decent effort to rescue the rider.

Oh man was literally just reading about a dude who died on the Ashley bridge a day before. Very lucky guy.
Certainly feel for the guy - not a great start to the day!
Good on him for just coming out of it feeling a bit hyped
A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"
Bowls can wait !

The old Waimak bridge is always a worry - narrow and bumpy with drivers looking everywhere but the roadway...
Don't know if the motorway bridge is much better - the barriers are VERY low.
Lucky - well yes, nearly drowned as it's in flood but a fall onto gravel as is usually probable could well have given him worse injuries...
