Went towards Queenstown for a nice little ride this afternoon. Sun was still there, so i decided to go with my Helmet open. Thank´s God, with just about 80-90 km/h on Malagans road i see a truck oncomming from Queenstown. Suddenly about 40-50 meters in front of me a big plasticbox is falling down from the truckbead on to the road. Next second, plasticparts and cuttlery and food everywhere.
I thought i can pass the bigger parts just.But,a small plasticcontainer in a bag hit me at the rearbreak pedal. The break closed immediatly and the rear tire stud still.My Shadow started sliding sidewarts. After 40 meters i stoped finally in the middle of the road.Somehow i didn´t tip over with the bike.The guy said many times sorry,and cleaned the road. I know his Boss, so its easyer to deal in this case.There is a dent in the Radiatormesh, and it was wet under the Bike,so i am not shure there is something broken.I called a towing truck. Tomorrow i will bring the Bike to Alexandra to Honda for a closer lock. Hopefully there is not too much damage.
Nothing happened to me,exept i am very angry.
This is my first accident since i´m back on a Motorbike. I hpe it will take a long time to the next.![]()
