Received by email to the webteam:

Sir

I have read the forum with regard to the death of the two motorcyclists and two seriously injured on the A272 Midhurst on Sunday morning (18/06/06). I was a member of the emergency services that attended the crash. It was in my 27 years experience one of the worst that I have attended. I am not a motorcyclist, and do not wish to register on your site, but I do want to appeal to all motorcyclists, especially on the A272 to please reduce your speed and remember, the double white lines are there for a reason.

Again, I would like to thank all of those who have posted their support and concern over this tragedy. I am grateful, and have drawn strength from all your good wishes. Your messages of support will be passed on to the families of my friends. Thank you all.

I would also again like to thank the emergency services for the professionalism and skill that they displayed in dealing with accident. The circumstances of how it came to happen are being investigated - the full story is not yet known. Whilst I agree and echo the advice given by the member of the emergency services whose email is posted above, I would suggest that no conclusions may yet be drawn, not until all the facts of the matter have come to light.
Thanks again.
