Supervox Down :-( ... But Not Out :-)
My 15yr record of not having an accident had come to an end - taken out by a car at all of 15mph by him deciding to turn right whilst I was alongside him.
Currently in Southend Hospital with a broken collar bone, some broken ribs, bruised lung & generally battered all down my left hand side. My nice Rukka gear and new Shoei lid are no more - jacket and trousers cut off by paramedics - they were so apologetic !! Lid took quite am impact judging the state of it. But the bottom line is I'm still here & it could have been a hell of a lot worse.

Re: Supervox Down :-(
Sorry to hear this!
Glad you're not worse off Jonathan, but what a rubbish bit of news for the day. Were you that desperate for an excuse not to do Viney's rideout? Jambo

Don't like this .
Gentle hugs for you. Sounds really painful but as you say, you are in A & E telling the tale. Heal well xx

Re: Supervox Down :-(
Thanks all for the good wishes.
I have no idea at all about the state of the bike - police arranged for it to be recovered to a local garage - will have to check on it when I get out of here
