Its bad enough when

[griff2000]

you lose a mate, an experienced biker, to a myopic cager.
But when you lose a mate who has barely started shaving, its nothing less than sheer gut wrenching.
This morning, on his way to work, Mike Brown paid the price for his love of bikes, and the lifestyle.
He was just 21.
In our area, a group of lads decided to start a club and go the way we all know. All were young, all were ready to continue our blood. And Mike was a part of it. He played Bass in a band, (which a group of us went to see this last saturday night). Party time.
I got a call today to be told that (apparently) a car driver had pulled out of a layby to do a 'U' turn, and ended the life of our friend. There were no skid marks on the road. Pretty fucking instant.
And such a pity that he wasnt a split second slower to also take the bastard with him....................................

Mike Brown. Ex Dragonhearts MCC and Celtic Warrior prospective member.
R.I.P.

R.I.P. Mike, :( , didnt really know you that well, but we had fun at the celtics warriors last year, you will be missed greatly, not just by us, but everybody who has ever known and loved you.
although you may be gone, you sure as hell will never be forgotten, you will live on in our memories mate

This is the very fucking reason why I think everyone should be made to ride a bike instead of cars.

They're cheaper (apart from usually the first year of riding).
They take up less room on the roads.

And more imprtantly, everyone has to have their wits about them becaus they are much more dangerous. That'll keep the fucking car-driving bastards awake. :mad: :mad:

deepest condolances to friends and family. we lost a youngun up this way last year, 10 days before his 18th birthday, similar circumstances and its ****e.

Mikes parents, his girlfriend and a group of us rode/drove to the site tonight.
The lads had made a cross out of 4x4 fence posts, put a carved plaque on it, we dug a hole, erected it and stuck a crash helmet on the top. Flowers were placed at the foot. The cross is big. Took two of the lads to carry it. The sunset behind was beautiful, constantly changing. And the silence was deafening. There was no need for words, red eyes told the story.
Seeing his mum and girlfriend breaking their hearts was unbearable.

There's to be an inquest. The blind wanker will be there.

Oh yes.
And so will we.
