    Hmmmn.

    No 2 reminds me of that 'watch out for bikes ad they're running on the TV at the moment. You just know what's going to happen next.

    No 1 gives me a case of deja vu. I've been there before. On the M25 last October when the car ahead of me locked up his brakes. I slid right up behind him but the gods smiled on me and I stopped just close enough to put my boot on his rear bumper. Heart was racing, though!!

    No 3 doesn't run long enough. Shouldn't it show where the idiot pulling the wheelie runs smack into oncoming traffic coming round that bend???

    Hate watching these bike accident video's. Anyone see that show on Sky? One hour of uninterrupted motorbike crash clips, both on the track and off. Video nasty.

    Yeah I hate watching them too, but they're good for reminding you that you really should be paying attention and not pissing about.

    Man, I am focused on the road. Problem is, no one else is. You just have to ride like everyone in rolling tin can is an idiot.

    Number 1 is a good reminder that people can be really nice at times like this. When I had my off loads of people stopped and helped at the scene - made me feel good about people - even the git who knocked me off put the fire out on my leg!

    Must say the first woman on the scene is a sight for sore eyes

    Hope he didn't do it by pissing on you. That would have been really mean!
