Default Re: There are Lies, Lies and Advertising......

Turned up about 10 minutes after the event, we got the bike running again, then had a chat and decided there was little point bodging it back on the road if it was going straight to the dealers. Still, good to hear it run as it was doing nothing when we first tried....

David seemed in good spirits, even if he was fairly sure of some bruising that should be fairly pretty for tomorrow....

From an insurance point of view it should be pretty cut and dry in David's favour, he did all the right things getting witness statements, and evidence showing he was allowed to be in the bus lane at the time.
That said, he makes a point about viewing holes in traffic and stopping cars suspiciously! Observation and hazard awareness is something you can never be too good at...

First Soho off of 2008, a dubious honour, sorry mate!
