It’s an outing between bikers that turns tragic this Sunday afternoon in the Lot. A 68-year-old man died after being hit by a member of the group he was riding with.
A group of 13 bikers
They are a whole group of bikers, 13 in total, a group of Facebook friends on a leisure trip explains the police. They take a ride Montauban-Cahors and return Montauban.
And it is on the D820 at the level of the commune of Montat that the drama is tied. Approaching a roundabout there is a slowdown, one of the motorcyclists, a 68-year-old pensioner riding a BMW 1200RT collides with the one in front and is ejected towards the tracks of security.
The firefighters and the Samu tried to resuscitate him in vain.
Four dead in one month including three bikers
The gendarmerie is sorry for a balance sheet deadly high on the roads of the Lot in this month of July. It amounts to four dead including three bikers. The first dates back to the beginning of July, a face to face with a car between Lalbenque and Cahors, the second a few days later during a similar scenario in Cressensac with a 20-year-old who died and finally in Capdenac the scenario again in all the heads of this truck driver carried away by his trailer which makes a dizzying fall of nearly 100 meters.
