Shot Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 ^^^Seconds after the crash, someone picked up the motorbike, than went to see if they could help him. A few moments later the French man took his last breath, and died in a pool of his own blood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpyoldman Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Currently a whole bunch of dummy tourists here riding like boneheads. I think I had the French ATM skimming crew blast by me going downhill into Karon around a bus the other day, with oncoming bus coming up the hill. Felt poorly for the pillion girls about to get demolished.........bad pavement, buses, speed, no helmets.............tick, tock,tick,tock, just a matter of time.
