robbsy Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 If it wasn't for all the car and truck drivers wrapped up in their tin boxes oblivious to whats going on around them bikers wouldn't need to become the main supply of organ donors. Apparently he was killed by a truck doing an illegal u turn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnGalway Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Don't know what happened in this case but I know as a tin box driver myself I don't like a biker clinging two inches from my rear bumper doing 60mph. Oblivious to the fact if I take my foot from the pedal, without even braking, he's dead. Happens an awful lot over here. Pass you anywhere they like then, madness. Not taring everyone with the same brush, just happens a lot like I said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbsy Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Quite agree with you John. Nothing more annoying than having either a car or motorbike hanging off your bumper and like you said its not every one,. but the minority get the rest tarred with the same brush.

twelvebore Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 'Borrowed' from another site.... Legendary rider’ Norick Abe dies in motorbike, truck collision Norifumi “Norick†Abe, one of Japan’s most successful motorcycle road racers, collided with a truck while riding a motorbike in Kawasaki, Kanagawa Prefecture, and died from the resulting injuries after having been taken to hospital Sunday afternoon, the Asahi Shimbun reports. Abe was 32 years old. Local police say the collision occurred on a four-lane municipal road, when the driver of the truck made an illegal U-turn, colliding with Abe who was closing in on the truck from behind on its righ-hand side. The truck driver told police he realized he had mistakenly taken the wrong way, and tried to get back on track. Norifumi Abe was born to the auto racer Mitsuo Abe, and sat on a bike for the first time when he was 5. After finishing elementary school, he spent two years in the United States, perfecting his skills. He won his first Grand Prix title 1996, and went on to conquer the title twice more. Abe, who was also known as Norrick Abe in the English-speaking world and as “the legendary rider†in Japan, had many fans in Japan as well as worldwide.
