There was another rider killed in Melbourne last night. Apparently two guys were racing using modern bikes. They rode on the freeway across the Bolte Bridge at extremely high speed, then turned towards the Burnley Tunnel. One of them hit the edge of the freeway and went over the edge. He fell 30 feet to the road below and died. The other guy kept going. The curves on that road are very gradual, however they might not be so gradual at high speed. The police said that anyone who wants to race should do it on a race track. We did that stuff when we were kids, but the bikes did not have so much potential back then . I gave up and went circuit racing before I killed myself.
