BBC page shows 3 riders have died in the last 5 days - ALL involved in collisions with other vehicles.
Each one is their own tragedy - R.I.P. all.

Aye the raods all over are getting busy with the farmers taking in their crops. Don't forget that unlike HGV drivers who have time limits on their working days these people work VERY long hours and will therefore be tired and their concentration and reaction time much slowed.
Ride safely, stay alert and expect the unexpected round every bend,

Tractors are dangerous to us. Be on your guard when considering an overtake. Quite often they will turn right into a field without indication. Expecting the driver to check his mirrors before turning? Forget about it. He is too busy thinking about his sister ! Be extra careful out there gang

thoughts go out to the family and friends R.I.P
just to add to what lee has said farmers are bringing in the crops so expect that there'll be grain on the road especially on roundabout and junctions rape seed is very hard to see on the road but it like riding on ball bearings keep safe everyone
