Bad Night

On the way home last night I saw a poor guy that had dumped his bike on the A10 roundabout, he was ok, but the bike was dead. It reminded me of my accident last year.

Evidently slightly earlier the same night two guy’s racing, north bound on the A1 near Stevenage, came unstuck undertaking a BMW “at speed”. One bike hit the car. Both the car and one of the bikes left the road. I don’t know the fate of the biker, but I’m guessing it wasn’t good news, as the motorway was closed for well over an hour.
I’m not judging anyone, we all get carried away sometimes. Just remember to take a reality check when things get silly.
