    Angry Badly need to rant!

    Right what a crap day!

    6:00 - run, pissing down
    7:00, coffee machine broken.
    9:30 - 12:30 - stupid bloody applied calculus exam, hard as hell, wet because of the shitty bloody weather.

    12:35 - And this is the point where it really goes down hill. Some Bloody Twat (tm) has knocked my bike over, probably stamped on it a couple of times and successfully bent the right handle bar way up, broken the brake lever, and scratched my near spotless fairings. Oh and on the left hand side there is a Huge and very visible gouge right down the fairing.

    Yes the damage is pretty marginal but I take a heap of pride in my little green baby. Hugely irritating when the bike has been stood back up, shifted slightly so that the scratch is hidden by a post and the first I notice of it is when I try to ride off and find the brake lever missing and my right hand high in the air.

    Off to the bike shop to get the handlebars straightened - there goes the petrol budget for the next couple of weeks. RARGH.


    Just had to get that out of my system.

    OMG.. That sucks.... hope everything gets sorted out cheaply, and the person responsible for being such a slag gets hit by a bus (or something to that accord)..

    Arrgh, that sux dude! It sounds like someone may have run into it ir something, I thought at first that it may have been blown over like mine was but I doubt that the handlebars would get bent by it just blowing over... Are there any cameras near where you parked your bike? If so might be worth checking those out to see if someone has done it on purpose. I hope that your week gets better!

    That sucks dude.

    I believe what comes around goes around, one way or another this will catch up with the person that did this.

    Thanks folks. It was the first time i'd parked it where I did, its undercover, reasonably sheltered from the wind, and not all that visible/not much pedestrian traffic goes past. Sadly no cameras either. I suspect it was pure accident, but as far as im concerned they should have bloody owned up to it. However blah blah blah.... real world.... blah....

    Exam was tough as hell, and to find my pride and joy pranged... Whats the motorcycle equivalent of a bender?

    Well when I was without a bike I used to go to the gym and beat hell out of a punching bag. If your not feeling energetic theres always beer. Beer solves anything and everything. If not then theres any number of other substances you could try, but i'd stick with the beer.

    Shit, sorry to hear mate. Hope you get it sorted
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Sounds like someones backed into it - are there any traces of paint from their vehicle left on your bike? You should check round the cars parked in that area tomorrow and see if you can find one with suspicious scrape marks matching the colour of your bike, then deal to it.

    Gutted mate. Sounds like the opposite of my day.

    715: got up, not too tired
    830: bit of rain on the way to uni, no worries though as i've got all my wet weather gear on.
    930: Start Economics exam, damn this is I bit more difficult than I thought
    945: Evacuate exam becuase of a bomb threat.
    1045: Exam cancelled due to said bomb threat, rescheduled for later in the week sometime. Stoked.

    Look on the bright side... Did you manage to have a read through the exam before you were evacuated? If you did I'd be studying the things that were in the exam that I didnt know if I were you!...
