Exactly 2 years ago on my 25th birthday I was riding back from Lake Ferry and got blown of the road into a bank while riding the KR. I remember being very angry and almost giving up riding...
Todays story is actually kinda funny. Today I had taken the day off and I decided to take the A round the bays for a blat..... It was really windy but by keeping my speed up a bit it was OK. Until I got stuck behind grandma and grandpa who were obviously out to look at the scenary and we were going about 25-30 K's.... I was coming toward the Defence place from Miramar going round a corner when a gust of wind blew me right of the road, luckily a lone Flax type bush was right in my path or I wouldve gone down a few meters and landed in the water. Its a bit cold for a swim today.... After regaining my composure I got the bike back to the road and went to start it, except another gust of wind came along and blew me over, so the bike landed on me. Once I got started I laughed all the way home. Talk about deja vu!

Tis all good. Didnt hurt a thing, doubt i'll even get any bruises. The bike only weighing about 50k's helped! Believe me this was VERY funny. Ive done worse things to myself while trying to cook dinner!

Tis OK, its more like me setting fire to myself or grating my fingers. The food is usually safe, usually. I only sit in my own dinners....
