Another motorcyclist killed

 Another bike rider has been killed this afternoon just north of Busso, heard 6 or 7 sirens screaming out of town around 5 o'clock. Don't know the details but please everyone, keep an eye out for bike riders, they are so easily missed sometimes and they rarely get up and walk away from any bingle. 

Cheers

Dale

Condolences to the family involved.

Unfortunately bikes on the road are too dangerous (even if you ride as safe as possible. -stopped riding on the road myself 25 years ago after someone did a U-turn in front of me - I was lucky, friend 6 months later lost a leg from a bike accident. That was enough for me to quit - not worth the risk in my mind.

Drove home late last night & Police still chalking out the MVA at 11pm, looked as if MC came around that slight bend into driver's side of vehicle pulling out right onto hwy & on way up this morning had another look at the markings.

Excess speed may have been a factor unfortunately 

Condolences to the family & friends

 Yeah Liam, that's basically what happened. The Commodore being driven by a 17 year old girl pulled out of Tuart drv and the bike slammed into the side of it. 110kmh zone so it would have happened pretty quickly. The 49 yr old bloke is dead and the girl is in a pretty bad way in RPH. Waiting for the wife to get home at lunch time to see what the scuttlebutt is around town to see who it was.

Drive Safe
