Default Just had an accident.

Yep, just coming home from work last night. Came on to a round about that crosses a dual carridgeway on the A11 at Thetford. A van half pulls outs in front off me, then stops. Then the driver of a Nissan Skyline assumes it OK to go (he can see anything from behind the van) - and does -BANG! The van driver just buggers off, cheers mate.

The upside is, I looked at the weather forecast earlier in the day and due to the predicted storms, I decided to take my car and leave my bike at home. The front of my car is mashed, just glad it wasn't me or my SV.

Bummer, glad you were in the car instead.

I was worried what the damage was to you and the bike was as I was reading. Stop scaring me!

Jeez Dad, don't worry me like that.

Glad you're OK and it was just the cage that got squished. They have their uses.

I could appologise for worry you all...but I won't. It was my intention to write the post in such away as to make people think. It certainly made me think.

Thanks very much for your concern and I'm in perfect health, well no worse than I was before the prang.

Cheers.
