Text: Yesterday morning
at 9.30a.m. two bikers died in a tragic accident on a sharp bend on Airport
Road. The bikers were talking to each other while they were overtaking a lorry
which was travelling in the direction of Heathrow Airport. Apparently they were
having morning exercise in preparation for the Tour de France. Two
motorcyclists were coming from Heathrow Airport while looking at a low-flying
landing airplane. “ They were riding very fast”, an eyewitness said. The
collision between the motorcyclists and the bikers blocked the traffic for more
than two hours. Two policemen were investigating the accident when we arrived
on the scene.
