Can't beat a low side crash on a tuesday morning
 
Got caught out with stone cold tyres. Tipped it into a roundabout and the front just let go. Nice slide down the road, Exhaust can muntered, brake levers and a knackered suit. R&G bungs that I fitted last week did their job.

What feels like a couple of cracked ribs too. :(

Balls!

Happy Tuesday everyone!

Please see wanted section for parts requests. lol Help a brother out. lol

Ooh ouch :-(

Hope you heal quick, at least you can be smug in the knowledge that you'd got the bungs on!

Yes its not been a good summer for crashing.
Hope the ribs heal quick, it will even hurt when you smile never mind breath.

Look back to the forum this time last year, or the year before that - its the same story every year Im afraid.

Ouchy! Glad you're relatively ok and a sign of the changing season methinks. It's just gone from lovely to bleedin 'orrible here and I have to walk home in a few minutes...in a dress.

You'll have the bike sorted in no time, but if your ribs are cracked...take it easy dude. Heal well x
