    a cautionary tale

    glad all concerned are OK

    just goes to show that headlights,(and also Hi viz but not in this case)are a complete waste of time when dickheads either dont see you or decide fuck you im going anyway.

    Jeez you have some bad luck at times. Glad you were able to walk away from this one. I guess your modified front suspension can now be called 'highly modified'.

    Glad the two of you came out relatively unscathed. Could've been much worse, but you know that already.

    Don't suppose you thought to add a tyre review while you were hanging about?

    Glad its only minor injuries! Now where's katmans reply? definitely seek to have the driver charged with careless use causing injury, sounds like he didn't even care.

    Aw mate, bloody awful and my sympathies to you both.

    Still, could have told ya, if you'd been riding the Ducati no Kenworth would have messed with ya.

    Hope all is now copacetic.

    Sorry to hear Mr Hitcher....not cool. Bike can be replaced though, glad you and pillion are largely ok. Little can be said about the truck driver...I think a sad shake of the head says all that needs to be said.
    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
    It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

    Far out dude.....

    You really need to stop falling / getting knocked down... Its bad for morale.... (I was going to say health but just waking up can be bad for that)

    Glad you guys are OK but PLEASE don't do it again.

    Oh Crap Hitch! What a horrendous thing. But at least you both survived relatively unscathed to tell the tale. I did the smoothy run to Palmie yesterday too. Was lovely out there on our roads. See you back out there soon.

    Hitcher,

    The important thing is that you and the Mrs are OK. Bikes can be replaced relatively easily.
    But you already know that.

    God to hear you are OK Hitcher, and that you have your normal calm about you.

    Your bike sounds like it might be more of a right off and a "fix up". Perhaps that might be a shiny ray of light (getting a new bike) to this terrible event.
