I heard it on the local radio (lantern). 51 year old local man collided with a car near Umberleigh I think they said.

I really hate that road. So many corners tighten up.

RIP

I had a text from K7 Dave, may have been someone he was riding with.

He was due to come up to the unit this morning but sent a text saying that Sean had a bad accident and was lifted by Air Ambulance.

I hope its not thou.

Shaun is my brother in law & like K7 Dave said is in a stable condition but will be in theatre most of the night. The Nurse looking after him said that, if he had not been wearing his leathers he would not be alive now.
Thanks Dave your a good mate when i needed someone, thanks to Chris & Pete who were also rocks.
Sorry to hear about the other motorcyclist RIP,,

So, was it the same accident, just wire's crossed as to seriousness, or were there two incidents

If so RIP to the guy who passed away
