Kwh. As DMC has said you have made a lot of assumptions one of the main ones is assuming that no-one on the ride out had given Seggons advice after the incident. After we had pushed Seggons back onto the road we rode on to the next safest place to regroup and analyse what just happened. Seggons was given some very good a proper advice from an experienced rider as to the seriousness and consequences of what happened and what could have happened.

I have no idea why you assumed that no advice was given. I assume it is because the posts on here do make light of it, which quite honestly it does but I don't really know why the people who went on this ride out and gave Seggons constructive criticism would then come on here and just keep posting exactly the same thing which he has already heard and hopefully taken on board.

Basically though what people are reading in your post is 'Why haven't the people on this forum prevented Seggons from either riding his bike or crashing.' or 'why do you people endorse crashing?' Thats why your getting peoples backs up.

Nobody wants anyone to crash or have any incident but to convey this do we have to shun people that have had incidents or in every single post remind these people what they should or shouldn't be doing?

kwh if it's any help I cannot read any of your posts due to the fantastic function of the ignore list this forum has. I'm guessing your posts contain about how bad my riding is and that I should give up the bike etc etc...

I put it down to the area, it's cursed for me. This incident was only a few miles away from the other one.

Maybe I'm really really stupid, but I don't see it as that much of a big deal. Yes it could've been so much worse but it wasn't. Both times have been minor slides off the road and the only damage has been to the rear tyre. I'm more ashamed of tainting the rideout for others and the general impression I must of given off.

If people find me too much of a vulnerability then I'm happy to keep away from ride outs. I don't want people to be put off if they see me in the list of attendees.

Oh well, so long as you are treating this sufficiently seriously and have drawn the correct conclusions for your future health and wellbeing, then neither I as an outsider nor anybody on this forum needs be bothered about your future health and wellbeing. I'll leave you to it.

PS: If there is anybody here... anybody at all... whose opinion Seggons does respect, or who Seggons will listen to, and who gives a ****... tell him to pay a professional for some intensive one on one training. Tell him to do it now. While he is still in a fit state to benefit from it.

May I just thank one and all.

As Moderator of this here little corner of the Org I was beginning to read this with some trepidation...

... but may I congratulate you all for retaining some sense of both decorum, grammer and spelling.

I feel very proud of my boys, regardless of their riding skills.
Play nice.

So do all East Anglian rideouts end in controversy?
