I reckon he was doing about 50-60 before braking a bit and a car pulled out from the right hand arm of the roundabout across him and hit him in the side which sent him towards me. I was next to a car in the inside lane on my arm. The keep left bollard went over my head and landed on that car's roof. He was in a bad way, the steering wheel had done him some damage to the chest even with a seat belt on. I walked to the nearest house (in the field to the right of the photo) to get them to call an ambulance and the police....they weren't keen, but I was so shaken I shouted at them and they did it. Then I got back on my bike and carried on to my girlfriends who's road was about 200 yards away. We came back out in her car on our way out for the evening and I stopped and gave my details to the old bill as a witness. They were carting him away on a wheeled stretcher by then. I gave an initial statement but never heard any more. Bloody hell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have seen one, flying one minute, it then went behind some trees, but never reappeared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yen_powell Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 My charms must work, I have 40 years no claims history on my motorcycle policy. They only allow a maximum of 9 though. Renewal due mid September. I am hearing of big increases from friend who have renewed recently, so I wonder how much it will be compared to last year.
