Putty Yesterday

Post by Damon Z1000 »

Guys,

I just heard on the radio on the way in, 2 riders killed yesterday on the Putty, head on with a oncoming car who was on the wrong side of the road overtaking :shock:

Anybody have a link?

RIP to guys or girls and condolences to the families involved :cry:

I saw a red ute around then yesterday as we were slabbing it after the half way house, one of the riders involved on a gsxr was possibly riding with us through the first twisties before the halfway house? :?

Yeah I remember thinking it could have been a cop coming the other way, because you couldn't pick it as a ute from the front. The guy with us had a ventura rack and bag too.

Poor buggers. RIP and Condolences to friends and family.

Sorry news.....If it was in Vic the driver would prob get off with a fine and us bikers would have to pay an even bigger levy and we would be targetted in sum operation.
