TEXT WITHIN EMAIL - Clearly he was on the wrong side of the road.

"On Saturday morning we set off out of Walcha and headed into Gloucester for morning tea and then straight onto Bucketts Way towards Krambach....

..... Never made it that far. Taking a Double Apex left hander collected a Timber Jinker heading the other way and so the story goes."

Very lucky he didn't die.

But really, who's fault was it????????

Yeah Louwai.....

I'm certainly not a qualified crash investigator by any means....

But lookin' at the photographic evidence of pics 2,3,4 and especially 5 and 6 .....the point of impact seems to be clearly on the truckdrivers side of the road!

That would indicate to me that the bike has quite possibly taken a wide line thru that left-hander and possibly drifted onto the wrong side of the road!

One very, very lucky dude to survive that one.....

I would expect that the rider will end up with a neg. driving ticket outta that one....unless he can convince the "powers that be" that the truck was cutting the corner big time and that he had to take evasive action and swerve to the opposite side of the road to try to avoid an impending collision!

A third party (ideally totally independant) eye-witness would definately help in this situation....

I also noticed from those pics that there does not appear to be any skid marks evident from either vehicle involved....

BTW, juz curious....is this rider a mate of yours, Louwai?

keep it fun (....& safe)
