Alarm-a-Bin Laden

Well, trust me, when your head *is* on the road, it's not very lulling at all.

Pick up some nice hot smelly rub to soothe your memories, hon, it helps to get rubbed for lots more than physical reasons (and no dont be mucky!). Its all good, yanno, glad you coped with the crash and are feeling better. This seems like a good forum for soothe and relate.

I wanna go ride! Unfortunately I landed in horse-spittal wiv evil flu til yesterday so my body doesnt agree with me that its a good idea to go see the winterless north, just quickly like. *sigh*

Fortunately the body does overrule the mind on the issue of general invincibility. I already got a nifty scar or two but none of them while *mobile* - the best was stabbing the foot pedal into a minor artery causing very interesting spouting fountain effect. Heh.

(tho i've never met a bmw rider who has binned - while riding a bmw - bmw's don't bin, they self correct and then tell the rider off)...

In one year of BMW ownership and around 20,000km I fell off my BMW R75/7 3 times
1 once in the driveway,got on one side and fell off the other
2 Gravel driveway doing 20kmh,lost the front and fell over
3 Hit by a van doing 80kmh

My BMW didn't self correct for any of these incidents,perhaps I had a faulty one

what i'm interested in now is that for this select group of very careful, lucky people, do they still bother with insurance? Apart from theft, it'd irk me paying insurance for 25 years and never needing it...

In 35 yrs of motorcycle ownership the only bikes of mine that have been insured have been 2 I had on tick,it's part of the deal.Otherwise if I'm stupid enough to smack them up - I'm smart enough to fix them...

The motorcycle gods will not be mocked. Drive carefully to the accessory shop tomorrow.


Maybe a small sacrifice will appease them...
