... bike was all smashed up and surrounded by 4 police cars. Rider nowhere to be seen so probably taken away.

Hope you're alright.

Another crash on the A143 last week. About 6 cars attending to him. I didn't stop as there were so many others at the scene. I saw the Ambulance coming down the A140 about 5-10 minutes later though.

This morning noticed a whole load of bunches of flowers at the junction

Yup, is here...

Bike crashed into a Land Rover, or Land Rover crashed into the bike? Two bikes side by side, the Suzuki rider sounds to have been a bit lucky

My hunch would be that the bikes were travelling along the A143 and that the L/R was turning right onto it.

Of course, I don't know this, but it fits with what I saw at the time.
