This was a CUSE2.....

Apparently a French tourist pulled out to overtake, straight into the path of the bike travelling in the opposite direction.  I guess that, as the car he was driving would be LHD, he'd have had to pull out too far before he could see past the vehicle he was overtaking.  He has now appeared in court charged with causing the deaths of the husband and wife riders.

Funeral - it's a cremation actually - is next Tuesday.  HOG have taken the step of asking members to attend.

Heartbreaking as you say. Only consolation is they died doing what they loved after a great weekend, and they would not have suffered.
