Sad News

Post by laidback »

Sadly a 27yo Kawasaki rider was killed in Wagga yesterday when her bike collided with a small van just up the road from where I live.

Don't know if she was a member of KSRC as I have not had any contact from anyone here. Pic in local paper shows a red bike.

Don't really know what happened yet but hard to understand a head-on on a huge straight (80kph) with great visibility. There was another prang a couple of hundred metres further up about two weeks ago.

Just proves we have to ride like everyone is out to get you...

Are they the ones on the yellow bikes....Have seen them hiding in the bushes and the first time did not pick for boys in blue. Was in the Liberty and keeping to the speed limit but they have caught a lot around here.
