    Bike Crash In Brantford. Head On With Pick Up

    A man and a woman went head on into a pick up yesterday in Brantford by the airport. This is only 3 min from my house. The bikers were dead at scene and the guy driving the pick up is in the hospital in critical condition.

    My prayers to the families. I heard the riders were in their 50's on the radio this morning.

    I wonder how it would of happened because it's straight roads out there with no curves, unless he was trying to pass and didn't see the pick up. Be careful everyone.

    Sketchy information, but if the vehicles were heading in the directions stated in the article and all ended up in the north ditch, it's more likely that the truck went into the bike's lane and the rider attempted to swerve right (north) to avoid.

    RIP. Way too many bad crashes lately.

    Was this info provided by a witness or the pick up driver?
    Slow down , keep leaning and you'll be alright.

    Son of a B, this is getting too depressing. I can only read a few of these at a time.


    RIP. Thought and prayers are with the family...
