I'm not trying to be insensitive but are you going to start a new thread every time someone in your area dies on a bike ?

Will you lighten up you insuferable Weerie Wullies?

Getting killed on a bike seems to be an important part of the game.

It is not pleasing to read but it's worthwhile to have knowledge of it.

Find out what went wrong and try not to follow the mistakes made.


Or stick your heads up your collective arses and batter on.


We will read about you maybe heaven forbid.

It will not stop me using a bike but it will make me think.

jamie:
Whilst I'm usually indifferent to these kind of threads, I feel that rating the initial post as 'boring' is very insensitive. I'm sure if there was a thread on here about you being in an accident (god forbid - I would never wish that on anyone) you wouldn't take kindly to it being rated as such.

I kind of see both side's to this, Yes maybe we could learn something about safety and dangerous areas for biker's and yes it is depressing and some dont want to know about all the bad news, We dont hear of all the cars that take lives every year or how many fishermen (sea or fresh water) die every year.
May be the moderator could make a new sub forum just for bikers bad news??

Personally I find them a smack in the face, which is what you need a bit from time to time to make you remember that hooning around the twisties can be very dangerous. Maybe it's just because I've got a wife and boy who I don't want to leave behind.

Fully understand why people might not want to see them, though.

To be honest some people wnt these threads, and some people don't. The dumbest people are the ones who don't yet disregard the fairly obvious title to take the time to post a reply, and/or rate the post down.
