Crash

Lots of oldies out this weekend I guess. Where I live they all come out at about 10am when everyone has gone to work and I swear its the most dangerous time.
Bad luck but glad you are ok.

glad to hear you guys are ok

Well that's gone and messed up the long weekend's riding plans somewhat!!!

Bike seemed in a sorry state from what I can remember but, amusingly, my most visible injury is a very purple bruised big toe!

dear god, he looks alarmingly like the old bint that damn near reversed into my car
in the B&Q carpark today, there's a million oblivious old people on the roads on the island, and it's scary

but the more important thing is you're ok, with all the photos and back story it looks like an open and shut case insurance wise

i have a lumpy arm (pic taken in the ambulance)

both our leathers and helmets are knackered and even my plaits got road rash. when i unplaited my hair a big chunk came away

thanks for the kind words everyone.

i promise i'll stop posting pictures soon...

Look what you did to that poor man's bonnet

Yes, that IS a lumpy arm!

made me feel a bit better when i saw that photo. i was busy sitting at the side of the road swearing and being comforted by someone who stopped whilst eviltwin was busily taking photos and sorting stuff out so i only just saw the photo.

Very sorry to hear about your off. That arm looks nasty. I hope that it's nothing serious. The bank holiday seems to have brought all of the idiot drivers out in droves. I was nearly taken out four times by morons on my way home yesterday and that was only a half-hour ride.
