TWO MOTORCYCLISTS were seriously hurt in a crash on the M6 in Cheshire. They were airlifted to hospital, as shown in the video above.

The crash was a multi-vehicle accident with cars and motorcycles involved. The southbound carriageway was closed between junction 17 and 16 while an air ambulance arrived to take the bikers to hospital.

It is believed the bikers' injuries are serious but not life threatening.

Is there really any need for the backing track?

My partner was one of the bikers involved. He is on the critical list and I live in Scotland and finding it difficult to see him. He's still in a coma and I pray he wont be left with brain damage. The backing music was out of order. It really upset me.

"It is believed the bikers' injuries are serious but not life threatening."

My partner will probably pull through but he might be left with brain damage. Still in a coma.

it was horrific for me watching it but the backing track didn't help.

This is not Thrillsville! This is REAL LIFE - and you've just watch one man almost depart from it. The partner of one of these bikers is beside herself with worry over his possible brain-damage from this smash. She's hundreds of miles away from the hospital where he's being treated - and you heartless idiots play THIS SOUNDTRACK!!!!? To quote another soundtrack - YOU'RE UNBELIEVABLE! If you claim to be a site dedicated to bikers, by bikers and FOR bikers - do us all a favour and go out and get a heart. You really make me quite sick. Callous!!

the guy being airlifted in this video (my Fiance) is out of coma but still 250 miles away from home. Still praying for his recovery.
