RIP Dan $ Stephenson
pickle:
I said to Mrs P that I don't think we'll be doing anymore London rides, her answer was that whatever RAD do you won't be going on anymore that's for sure. :-\

Mine has said she won't stop me but has made her feelings about wearing a helmet crystal clear.

We all love the RAD rides and they are getting bigger each year. I think we should sit back and take a good look at what has happened here .
Accidents do happen , but this can't happen again .
We were jumping red lights, me included :( . The ride organisers need to learn from this horrible accident. Make changes to routes .
Avoid roads where possible.
All stick together .. There were a few groups on Saturday splitting off .
We all need to abide to the laws of the road in the future .
RIP DAN :'( .

Well said Carl. I've been on enough RAD rides and done the same thing. I've always thought that there was an accident waiting to happen and sadly it was much worse than we could foresee. If there's a positive at all to this, it's that it may make us all take stock and be a little safer on the roads.
factory pilot:
I hear you Rob ... Spoken to my Jo long and hard about this sad sad subject but also decided that sadly I won't be attending any more of the London rides even if they were to happen again.
animal:
To be honest everybody just needs to do what they do . There's only one way in life and it's ur own . This has hit me hard for obvious reasons . I could have walked away but didn't . I for one after the shite I've been through. I will not be sitting in my armchair dribbling at 80 thinking I wish I'd done this and that . It's not a dress rehearsal. We only pass this way once . Crack on .
Yes this has hit me hard aswell :'( No blame on anyone .
