No more bike, no more riding...

[Blakamin]

Farq man!!!!! hope you get better soon.....
llok on the brightside... you wont have to fork out for yet another mirror!

(so that was after our thursday ride?)

[Skunk]

Unless I'm mistaken ramius is the bloke with the cursed bike right?

That's the bike. WMCC can have 'the cursed one' later today.

[bugjuice]

comis dude.. sucks to come off, sucks more to injure yourself and wreck your ride.. My bro is still going thru the throws of it from a bin at Christmas..

Hope you get fixed up soon!

[Skunk]

(so that was after our thursday ride?)

Yep, it was.

[zeRax]

bugger dude, onwards and upwards thou, speedy recovery then go shopping i hope ?

D: bit concerned of the day i will have my first bin, i already have an old mans hip and knees, can just picture my right hip shattering like glass grrr, that'd be a pain in the ,, hip :P

[zeRax]

and i hope you do get back on a bike afterwards, theres too many cars in the world as it is, cars take up far too much space and even in a cage it doesnt mean your safe, think of that and what bike your going to look at getting when insurance comes through, after your speedy recovery that is ?

[mouldy]

Yes, as the title suggests, I am without a bike, and I am not riding, Thursday coming home I binned it on a corner. Fractured my wrist and pelvis and got air lifted out of wellington yesterday by life flight to gisborne for my recuperation period, oh it sucks. The bike is getting written off.

I want to thank Skunk for all his great help and also Jim2 and Hitcher. Thanks guys!!!

wren't on the standard tyres by any chance?

Holy shit, so sorry to hear about this - where abouts did it happen? What happened? How long will you be in Gizzy? (maybe Skunk/Jim2/Hitcher could enlighten us if Ramius is out of action??)

Let us know if there's anything we can do.

happened on the last turn into kaiwharawhara road from the hutt motorway. leaning on my right i think the wheel slipped on loose gravel and it threw me off to the left leaving me to land on my hip. Will be in gis for at least three weeks, been told no work for at least that period because, well, i can't sit down :spudwhat: People have been saying, oh well you wont be getting back on a bike again, i'm thinking, yeah right. I love riding. took the hospital 36 hours to notice i had broken bones

as for things, i need a new bike, and when i get back to welly a new place to live. was meant to move out in three weeks.

[Ramius]

What do you plan on getting after you recover?

And, out of interest, why did you get air lifted to Gisbourne?

A car and a bike. No idea what yet. Got brought to Gisborne because they would not release me to my three storey flat in wellington. so it was either send me to gisborne with my family or stay in hospital until i was better.

[loosebruce]

Pelvis, flag that mate, cant be too pleasant at all. Hospitals suck the kumara for staying in thats for sure, here's to a speedy recovery and to getting back riding asap.

[muzz]

Get well soon. Sorry to hear about your bin. Hope you don't give up riding.
There's still too much fun to be had.

If you need anything done in welly, just give me a yell.....

Don't forget about your helmet. I guess insurance will want to sight it so let me know when/where.

[Ramius]

This would have to be the largest bruise I have ever seen, and because I am the caring sharing type, you too can see it here....

[Ramius]

Cheers for that. spoke with them yesterday, they are going to just give me the money - 5 months depreciation. I just have to fill out the form. Actually all the insurance companies have been great!!
