Hey, you shouldn't be thrapping that bike yet anyway. Bet ya can't wait till she's run in so you can give her a good thrashing.

Bee...Emm???? Todos muchos Sam!!
Have a word with yourself!
However, I found that after I got my last points and crapped myself about getting any more, I observed (still do) the speed limits. It's amazing what you see of the world.

Mind you, watching this video, it doesn't matter how you ride when there's fuckwits like that on the road!

Agree with LC on that - no matter how careful you are - there is always a nob that puts your life in danger!!

What was the point in that video - oh big woppie do - your going fast on a public road - he should have died instead!!

Jesus.........Ouch!
I feel sorry for the guy he hit.

I haven't watched this and don't want to start a ruck, but is it appropriate to post links like this where someone has lost their life? Admittedly it is out there already, but why promote viewing it?

[Spree]

It was intended for shock tactics Dave, particularly for the new riders. Fortunately you don't get to see the gory details but you do see first hand what happens in a crash - the kind of video the government should show really but don't have the balls to do it.

I myself had something similar happen to me a long time ago but if I had seen this then maybe it wouldn't have happened - who knows

[Mickie]

How must the dead lads parents feel about total strangers using the video for entertainment on youtube. Being able to rerun their sons death time and time again must be horrendous.

I'm not sure about this one but in the past families have allowed footage to be shown to help make others aware.
I haven't watched the clip and try and avoid similar ones as it would probably put me off full stop, but if it works for others then fine.
