Check your breakdown/recovery insurance. Pete's clearly states that if he is injured they will recover his bike.

Awwwww tits.

Can't you store the bike there whilst you come back to blightly to heal... then fly back out there and carry on?

Ok - maybe not.

At least you're only in two pieces. GWS.

Can you sell the bike there for a tidy profit? You only bought it for the trip anyway didn't you?

Aw, that's rotten mate. Still, you've gone further already than most people ever will.

Real Shame Dirk, but hope it's been good up to now (as said) on your long travels and you can get back OK unless you can enjoy yourself out there & heal.

Dirk's probably already aware of this, but if you sell the bike abroad you run into trouble re import duty/carnets.
