Driving into south queensferry (edinburgh), just taking the dogs for a drive, A bus attempted to manouver around a parked car, a biker driving in the other direction crashed head on into the bus.

He looked in a very very bad way, no movment from the poor guy.

good luck mate!

The reason Chris has popsted this i imagine is because its an unusual and traumatic event to witness, if anything its you guys who are out of order, if yopu've got something better to say go start your own thread! [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Hope the guy comes out if it o.k., stories like this are the reason i sold my bike after 20yrs in the saddle

Hi rick.

than **** there are normal people here.

turned right at tesco (from kirliston) heading to the village, a few yards after the train staion turning, at a bus stop.

i had the wife and daughter with me, both where very upset by the insident.

if im honest it looked bad for the guy, we can only hope for the best.

cant understand the poor responce from the other scooby netters, hope it never happens to them!!!!

Doesn't sound good for the biker, if I see anything in local press will let you know.
Shame some on scoobynet have to have a go because they don't like the thread, If you don't like it dont read it and def. dont post, pretty simple I would have thought.
Where are you from anyway ?
Edited bekause i kant spel

Have a go at Phil by all means cos he deserves it, (imho etc.) but don't forget to have a double go at Care3

i picked my nose b4 i vacuumed my car today,after that i watched a bit of cricket,then a bit of f1 and some footie
who cares?
So you're comparing a (quite likely) fatality, with picking your nose? If you're not interested, then don't post, that's fine.
Just think it in your head rather than typing it out for public consumption. No smilies given or implied.

Fair play

All abuse aside condolances to the family if indeed there has been a fatality

Still don't think the Pr**k & Di*k Breath comments are called for.

But anyway I'll leave your thread alone and perhaps I'll see you at Knock Hill in a couple of weeks
