you did the right thing! i went out last night, goin round a corner (very slowly) on a main road and went straight down! snapped hanger plate and bent crash bung are the damage as far as i can see. mum came to the rescue and brought out my rearsets that were sitting in the garage so a quick change and i got home. not a happy bunny. oh and to add to the annoyance about 10 minutes later 2 fr1ckin gritters come past within 5 minutes while i'm waiting! safe to say i took the horribly late bleedin' train to work today i need hugs!

Hard luck Chris, it does take a delicate hand in this weather that's for sure, even I got to the end of the road and turned round and came home this morning the duke was sliding all over the place, mind you that was only to swap bikes and take the S4 up the hill.......

take it easy folks anything off the main drag could well be icy .

Cheers Mark.
