    The mighty, legendary, A100 gets bowled!

    I was riding wellys sluttiest A100 home from work yesterday and got hit by a car.
    This bike had survived being owned and THRASHED by some of the wellington regions craziest riders, including mikey and Drew, and for a moment I thought I was gonna be sore and the bike had finally met its match in a Cage that failed to give way.

    Not a chance, Im sweet and the bike got a bent plate and a wee scratch or two, but the plate absolutley NAILED the new paint on the car the hit me!
    The indicator that got scraped didn't even brake and the thing was still going Quack Quack as I rode out the impact onto the footpath.

    FUCKEN A!

    AND it still managed a pretty good (almost highside) skid last night at the pedestrian crossing! I really thought I was gonna crash it for the 2nd time that day!
    I was SO glad that you were OK! That lil bike is awesome, even I (the mighty GN destroyer) has crashed it into a car and it lives!

    Hopefully the old lady might look next time! *tui*

    The truth is that the mighty A is Chuck Norris in metal. Only possible explanation.

    The legend continues.

    However the real question remains, will the mighty A survive the grueling compitive world of bucket racing. Or Will it fall to bits as it rides into the distance.

    Until next time.

    Damn it why in the world did i deny the ride i was offered on this legendary bike just days ago ?

    Well even if you had said yes, I had lost the keys, remember..... Anyway, you have already ridden it and you're welcome to again, as long as I can ride your RG!

    Damn little old ladies......

    One drove straight thru a Give Way last night and clipped my wife driving our car before T boning another guy going the other way. Ours was the only one not written off, but will need some repairs (No-one injured,fortunately)
    Experience......something you get just after you needed it

    Why the hell not? At least she won't have time to claim on her insurance and nudge my premium up.
