too late apeman, I'm at the head of the que
Strange I'm sure it is blatently obvious that I WAS FIRST. And don't come out with that "I PM'd" before I posted rubbish

Anyway i find out thursday if i need a pin put in my thumb. my parents reckon it will be about 2 months at the earliest before im able to go back on it.
yeah right,

busted spine= professional opinion, might walk again = 16 weeks back to riding
crushed foot (all bones broken) = professional opinion, might loose foot = 8 weeks back to riding.

dislocated thumb = professional opinion, 48hrs immobile and a week light use = riding two days later.

Just as well I never listened to what they say

Positive Mental Attitude, works wonders.l

I'm sure if you ask nicely some one would pillion you in to Soho for the evening

Cheers Mark.
Add too add.

11 broken ribs + pelvis broken into multiple pieces = professional opinion, lenghty stay in hospital and months of rehab before can walk again = ten days in hospital and riding again after 4 months. Totally agree with Mark. PMA is the best healer there is.

I voted for the wussy dependent on weather answer.
Will try and make it, though, since I haven't been for a month or so.

Hi guys - I'll probably pitch up on the back of the Africa at around 10 pm. The SV hasn't left the garage for weeks now. Although looking weather-wise, Sunday looks good for a ride out and my baby, I am sure, is feeling neglected.

Hopefully see some of you on Friday.

yep, snowing heavily in central London at the mo, but doesn't look like it will settle (famous last words)

I could do with the loan of a knee tonight to help straighten my radiator
Jonboy has already volunteered to scrape the remains of the pedestrian off it

I'd be extremely wary of trying to straighten a rad. They're like brake levers, they only bend once.

it's not actually bent, just the 'hangers' or whatever they're called that are bolted to the frame - it's been shifted sideways by an inch or so, just needs pushing back, but I can't quite manage on my own - need to hold & push at the same time
