I hear that the road has been closed for some time following an altercation between a bike and a car... with any luck it's NOT a fatal but roads aren't closed for hours willy-nilly...

Yes - afraid it was a fatality. Bike hit a car. We were stopped and sent back to the Thirsk Rd.

Thought I was still on a race track,





But the grip levels said otherwise. Basically, too much corner angle for the road surface and lowsided into a tree. I still have no memory of what happened. Strangest thing was that I suffered no injuries /pats quality leather, except for memory loss. Just remember waking up in hospital. Looking at those photo's still feels strange, especially the one of me completly knocked out with what looks like someone checking my vitals.

It's quite common to have no memory of the last few seconds before a blackout... I knew a traffic cop once who said that the ones who can remember every detail of a crash where they end up unconscious are usually lying
