my day was very eventfull my ride lasted 4minutes and 1 crash.... iwas heading down a straight just out of eketahuna towards pahiatua and was gaining on a cage quite quickly... so theres this nice lonnnnnnnng corner ahead and a great grass verge, so in my 2 day old leather jacket and new jeans i speed up to 160 to pass said cage, thats all fine and gravy, i pull out and theres no cages coming around the lonnnnng corner and i accelerate from 160 a wee bit, as i am beside the cage i hit some corrugations in the road.....and my bike packed a huge wobly dropped on my now barely working leg and decides to carry on passing the car on its side....so natualy i fly through the air and bounce spin roll and do general gymnastics untill i hit a farm fence post, break the friggin fence post continue down the grass verge and just for good measure hit the fence again and break that too, roll for a while,bounce on head and stop in a pile 60 somthing metres down the road. all the gymnastics happened on grass fortunatly. i must be the luckiest guy around to survive a 160kph crash and walk away, if i was wearing my codura jacket my back and ribs would be getting glued back together. my bike is pretty fucked as logic would say, but its mainly cosmetic......so now i have a very badly bruised body and one stuffed bike and a very bad experience in my hands.......i dont have insurance.....and there musta been something wrong with the bike too do thati will not be put of bike though. i cant believe i survived, thanks to the bikers that stopped to chek up on me
