What the hell is with the news saying when the Kawasaki collided with the VW Golf.

In MOST cases, it's the knobbish car drivers mistake that he got knocked off, but they always make the bikers out to be the criminals...
Sickening...

I was expecting this reply sooner or later.
I agree you are right, he could of been, it just seems to me in almost every article about bike accidents, they always make it out to be the bikers fault.
Just my two cents.

Just found out that although this man was from Wiltshire, he was actually living in a house just on the other side of my back garden, saw his bike parked outside his house everyday.

The wake is at the pub where I bartended (till I had my crash), his parents and brother both live on my estate as well, it all seems alot closer to home now.

Thats one guy I'll never get to ride with. Karma

Does hearing about these accidents ever give anyone second thoughts about riding a bike?

Like everyone, you never think it could happen to you but when you hear about so many fatalities. (especially posts on here, with messages from their family) it makes you think.

Just put a deposit down on my first bike (gs500f) should be excited but it sorta depresses you a bit when you hear about all the spills.

puremagic72 · Brolly Dolly Joined: 15 Nov 2005 Karma :

Yeah i do have thoughts about riding, there's been 4 fatalities in 2 months around me.

But if everyone thought this, there would not be any bikers around.

At the end of the day, you just get on with it, you cant start living your life in dread, if it happens, it happens, just bad luck or bad judgement.

But i know wat you mean, i do every day i get on mine, but shrug my shoulders and move on.

the one thing i never do is is dread over what might happen, the more you think bad, the more it will happen due to mood while driving, although you do become very wary, and develop a kind-of sixth-sense, such as knowing to move to a certain side of road when seeing a certain cars behaviour, only to watch that car swerve or something later on, and think you could of been at the sh1tty end of that stick...(you know what i mean) ride with best intentions at heart, shouldn't go far wrong there.

Sorry the hear the news.
I used to live in Somerton and used that road a lot.
Its always damp this time of year and used by large trucks and farmers.
Be carefull on any road.

Sorry to hear of another loss, I feel deeply saddend by it. Especially having lost my partner recently ( Alex ) My thoughts are definitly with the family.

I can relate to some of these messages in varying ways. I was saving for a bike and wanted to be able to ride so badly. Im learning to drive my car but its boring as hell. But the horific loss of Alex to me, seeing the devistation its caused to me, my family, his family. . . I feel I can never ride a bike.

I think its good that you ride and enjoy your life, but I just dont think I ever can now.
