Try reading the the coroner's letter,without the intertwined bits put in by the Telegraph.
I don't think this a man that wants road racing banned.He just wants it made safer. The riders and a fair number of spectators know it is dangerous but a lot do not seem to realise how dangerous it can be. This is where education is needed not money.
Other things can be fixed with money and I think it is a good opportunity for clubs to push for more money and help. This would include legisaltion to remove all BT and NIE poles and putting in underground services, removal of high kerbs, erecting removal fencing and sign posts etc, a charge put on spectators and all monies ploughed back into safety. These are all things that are in the power of the Minister.


While other sports and activities may incur more injuries and deaths, it is not for us to point the finger, we don't like it when others do it to our sport.
