Re: Please read - You help needed for my project
thanks for the replies so far everyone...
I think I may have worded question 4 not so well..redited! Its meant to go, "How many years of riding did you have under your belt at the time of each off" |

Re: Please read - You help needed for my project
I think mileage would be worth putting on your data entries but:
1. How long you have been riding for (not including months or yrs out) 3-4 years 2. How many hours you ride in a week/month (rough estimates only) bout 5 a week average over the whole year 3. How many offs you've had on the road(regardless of whose at fault, or if it was just you that binned it) - dont incl track day offs 2 that've been serious enough to report 4. Years after you started riding for each off 1.5, 2 5. The speed of each off 15mph 40mph 6. The location of each off (in terms of urban vs countryside) urban, erm residentially countrysidey, there were fileds and sheep and vicars about but there were adjacent streets with houses. 7. Time of day of each off (again roughly, no need for exact times) 5.30pm, 5pm 8. Nature of injuries sustained after each off - if no injuries say no injuries. whiplash, muscle damage sprained wrist, damaged testicles! screwed my manhood again (worse than the last), fractured pubic ramus(?...stole that off ed, basically pelvis), slight haemothorax
