Statistically more motorcyclists are killed on a Wednesday in Essex, than Saturdays and Sundays combined. This is despite the notable increases seen in motorcycle traffic at the weekends.


Well this one is true.......

I crashed on a wednesday on the way back from a meet....

I didn't die at least

"Inexperience or unfamiliarity with the motorcycle seems to play a big part in our crashes. 38% of all riders killed this year had owned their bike for less than 3 months. In addition to this another 61% of riders had owned their bikes less than a year."

That one really stands out to me

Out of 902 accidents only 15 did not involve some level of injury. **** that makes me really realise how lucky I was yesterday.

Riding experts like the IAM agree that speed and power alone doesn’t kill motorcyclists. Inappropriate speed in the wrong place, speed without judgement, or speed without ability, can and does kill.
