Every single motorcyclist who gets on a bike has to accept that he could be involved in an accident in which he was totally blameless but he was there.

Its a fact of life and they live with it. The youngsters think they are invincible and are brought up believing that its never their fault regardless and often this is the first time that they have to accept the fall out from their actions.

The main point in my view is that no one is made to get on a motorbike, no one is made to race a motorbike.

People like Ian who hate motorbikes for whatever reason are like religious zealots who will go to any length to convert people to their point of view. In his case, he will campaign on whatever stage people will listen to him.

If he really wants his argument to have an effect, go on the motorcycle forums and leave the karting forums for karting issues. There is a heck of a sight more important things going on in the karting world which will affect all karters than a 2 week period of motorcycling. And as an aside, what about the Irish road racing scene, just as dangerous, where's the voice when that series is on.

Every single day when I ride my bike I am much more alert to my surroundings than I am sat in my little box. I can only compare it to when I am racing, the concentration is at the same level.

How many of you drive your car concentrating as hard on the road as you do when your racing.

Nobody makes the TT riders race, no one makes a motorcyclist get on a bike and unfortunately no one seems to emphasize to drivers that bikes can be difficult to see.
