Default xXBadgerXx down

Had a couple of texts off Badger to say he had an off this morning. Sounds like the ice got him at about 10mph, so went down hard. He is having a chest and leg X-ray on LHS. Poor bugger also has cough which is making the ribs hurt like hell. More on this as I know.

He says loads of other bikers and old folks in A&E today. We had some freezing rain last night that has coated every path / road with a slick covering of ice, it's deadly! Even my dog slipped on his bum this morning it's so slippery.

UPDATE: The lad has cracked ribs on LHS and his knee has a haematoma, so swelling up very nicely.

Exactly what happened to me a short few weeks ago. Bugger of the highest order. Fingers crossed nothing too badly damaged. Body or bike.

Bad luck old chap, good show on going out this morning.

Atleast I wasn't the only one out in the snow today.

Ouch! Hope that he's OK and nothing badly damaged.

Today is one of the very rare days when I decided that it might be sensible to leave the bike at home.
