sorry guys
i had an accident this morning
so at the moment it seems like no rides for me.

I had a guy turn left and skip two lanes into my lane right in front of me.
He was in a ford wagon with a trailer behind it.
I braked but ended up hitting the end of the trailer and went down.
I hope the grumpy old man doesnt fck around with me..

News of this reached us on the Coro ride. Where did it happen? Motorway? I heard you got 7 stitches?

I saw another dude on a GSX 250 almost bin on the way to Kaiaua today - he panicked on approach to a corner and locked up the rear and then kept it locked, sliding off the road, gravel and then grass. Doubt he was using the front brake. Anyway, he managed to stay upright... just.

it happened on the pakuranga , cascade rd intersection. I was on pak rd going towards pak plaza and there was a guy coming up from cascade going left into pak rd. As i passed the lights i saw him, there were no cars at all apart from us, thought to myself please don't cut in front of me cause i was on the far outer lane( theres three) but didnt break assuming that he would go into his own. What do you know..assumptions always gets you... he skips two lanes and cuts right in front of me with his trailer on his station wagon. i had my HID on highbeam but he must have not seen me. All im worried about at the moment is the possibility of the guy saying hes not at fault coz i got the impression that he was thinking he didnt do anything wrong and that im the fckn idiot.

really.. well i txted most of the riders that i had on my phone coz it was my first down
and Nish said you're not a real rider until you have an accident. lol The accident happened on Pakuranga ,cascade rd intersection where a guy with a trailor on his station wagon cut in front of me. yeap.. i got 7stitches on my hip and cuts here and there on both legs(just a minor accident). wasnt wearing leathers cause i was on my way to church. i was lucky that my rear was locked and tailed out before hitting the back of the trailor coz that made me fall on my side rather than flying foward. Anyways.. you guys have a good ride?

Thank you~ it was only a minor accident so as soon as my wound heals up i should be going on rides..just not this week i suppose

thanks kim~ i should be healing up pretty soon, just stitches and sore hip bone from the impact. It would be great if you could help me sort out the cbr.. just where to take it, what to do etc.. at the moment im just waiting for the cop to get back to me with the other guys detail but im kinda worried if hes gonna fck with me. the drivers an old man whos pretty tight up. firstly, he's not to positive towards people on two wheels.. when a cyclist rode past his trailor he said you better get off that thing. Also, he was asking me if i had a proper bike license and if it was registered etc. And then asks if i had insurance , when i said no , hes like what are you gonna do then. I think he reckons im the idiot who crashed into the back of his trailor for no reason.

or it may just have been me panicking from the guy pulling in front of me that i didnt use the front brake enough and jammed on the rear.

Well just wait to see what the cop says. Anyway can the bike still be ridden? What is damaged? I suppose lesson to learn from this is that as bikers we should always be on the alert. If you think a car is going to pull into your lane then position yourself appropriately brake early. Be thankful that you are ok as you said you landed on your side and did not fly forward.
