Hi all, the photos from today are on the site now.
@Karey,
Yes the road in was closed for hours sounds bad by all accounts. It was a 20 strong gathering and great to see new and old. Shame you could not make it Kaz. See you all at Squires next week at rock and bike.

Ooooh Kaz.....just rode past the accident spot and it must have been awful........big area of burnt roadside and road was closed for ages. A sad day for someone :<<<
BUT... a great afternoon for BM ers :>> Lovely to see so many there.(missed you,tho, Kaz) Great to meet up with the Borwickers again and new and old faces...well done to feebeefoo for braving her first meet...and planning to come back for more another time Special hugs to Tim for his surprise visit.....yep, he DID buy the big blue bike ....yippee!!!!
Alice, I don't know how bad it was but the burnt area was not the crash site as I was redirected there by the police. My feeling is that it was on the bend at the Squires side of the small bridge.
On the up side, yes it was good to see faces OLD & NEW, I wouldn't say which were which.
This is the guy that had the accident today..he is from Harrogate and is going to be ok.
The article says it happened yesterday thats because it goes on the internet before going to press in the morning.

lol @ Alice..now now...don't be judgemental .. you can be mental
tho..that's allowed
On a serious note glad it wasn't a fatal and my thoughts and well wishes go to all those involved, apparently the lady driver was very shaken and upset.
It's a bad bend, as are most of them round there... Ride/drive safe everyone.
Well it looks like you had a great day ... The photos are brill.
I'm looking forward to catching up with you all at the Rock n Bike.. not long now.. boy am I ready for a good old pish up! hahahah
Just reminds us all how vulnerable we are, and rightly so. You can't live your life scared of getting knocked off, but it doesn't hurt to be reminded now and again of the dangers involved in this obsession of ours.
