What a girl
How unfortunate she had to find out the hard way
I'd like to think I'd have the guts that she has if something like that happened to me
In years gone by I've ridden in only shorts and a tee shirt etc, but it's true as you get older you seem to recognise the possibilities of danger more clearly
It's not something I'd do now

IMO the rider deserves a massive slapping!!!
Firstly, pillion safety is HIS responsibility
Secondly, riding so fast that she couldn't hold on makes my blood boil
It is SOOO easy to take someone on the back and scare them witless.
It takes a lot more skill to give them a ride that them come back from with a huge grin, bouncing around and saying they've got to get a bike.
Making sure they are completely comfortable and secure is an absolute must
