    Well, now...if you'd come down for the RRRS course like you said you would, then this wouldn't have happened. And you would have learned how to avoid it in the future.
    Pity you had to learn the hard way, but as long as you have...then that's a good thing.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    At 100kmh or more, it hurts! A lot and for a long time too!
    Even with all the right gear.
    If the destination is more important than the journey you aint a biker.

    Dude, I just checked out your profile and am not suprised that you crashed. That bike is clearly way to big for you. I recommend a ginny until you are at least 12.

    Bugger about the off mate, glad to hear that you got off lightly, good motivation for having the right gear huh?
    Good luck with the repairs and the healing, might pay to do that course after all....
