    Oh fuck... not again!

    Whoo, holycrap. Guy up there really hates me. Since my post with my first ever crash (you may remember that didnt go too well, but hey shit happens ay) where I have failed to stop, in the past 3 weeks this what has happened to my bike, have a laugh:

    1, Failed to stop in time, swerved into a car. Totally my fault (2,1/2 weeks ago)
    2, A person has reversed into my bike (oh well, these things happen who cares)(offered to pay btw) (1 Week Ago)
    4, So I pull from the lights, this time not in my 0-50 in less than 1 second fashion but in a rather nice, more down to earth way, the next thing I remember was my amazement of the new laws of physics, where apparently accelerating doesnt cause you to be pressed backwards but rather, make you fly with a massive force forwards. Hey I was thinking to myself during the flight, at least I can get 5 seconds of free flight time, damn, to bad I cant log it, oh well, here comes the ground... oh shit, not again! bang! Everything went into slow motion and i couldnt hear anything, just a constant squeak in my ears. but soon everything went into play again as Mia (my bike) caught up to me and fell down 5cm away from my body with tremendous force... if you thought that this was enough wait, the guy in the SUV who was the cause to why the laws of physics been rewritten (if you havent figured he rear-ended me btw) slams on the brakes, there is too much speed, to fast, and ends up driving over me. Thankfully the car had the clearance for my body, otherwise I would have been mince meat. So, I stand up and walk over to mia, hoping like hell the girl is still alive, and what ya know... she IS!!! I was so happy at that moment. The guy apologized which was cool by me, and obviously offered to pay for the damages
    3, Knee down around a corner, on a well known road to me. Encountered diesel or oil, down I go, not too bad, recovered on rebound when I hit the ground hehehehehe, I didnt even get what happend at first
    4, The bike got stolen overnight, and then found again 400 meters away, looks like it has been given one hell of a run.

    So, if you think that you are having a bad week... please tell me so that I can stop feeling bad for myself. But I hope you got the same good old laugh out of this as I did. What else can you do other than just praise the day, smile and thank god that you still have a motorbike left... and have only a gravel rash on one side of your body...(obviously my guardian angel has totally taken that guy up there by suprise) (she still goes like a monkey on steroids... what a tough bitch), I love that bike, any other one would have falen to pieces by now. Have a good one guys, and lets hope you wont be as unfortunate as me.

    Ciao

    Good gracious......

    And I thought I was having a bad week :P

    That is like the mother of all bad weeks........may be a wise idea to not go riding anywhere over the weekend

    If things are going badly in our circumstances, the answer to what is happening to us outwardly is more often than not found in the mirror.
