Two bikes down - A406 Hangar Lane
Yesterday evening, I had a strong sense of foreboding when leaving work and riding home. As I approached Hangar Lane from the South, all of the traffic was stopped and there were no cars approaching from the North. I filtered past the traffic and saw that there was a rider on the ground surrounded by people. It looked as if it had only recently happened as the emergency services had not yet arrived. I couldn't see the condition of the rider, he was lying still, but no sign of blood. His bike (a white Hornet) was in the middle of the road, some considerable distance from him. I don't know if he was hit by someone turning out of / or into a side road. I hope that he's OK.
Then this morning, just a few yards from the scene of last nights accident, there was a smashed black pointy SV, probably a K4, by the side of the road. There was no other sign of a recent accident, so I think that it may have been there for a few hours. Again, I hope that the rider is OK.
