    pak & save 10.25 no one, figured ok they're keen and gone already, so raced up to caltex to see if i could catch up (at the speed limit of course), got there to find andrey on his own, waited there with him until 11.15 then followed him to the sumit where seeing as I was heading over to otaki, I left him to work his way through the traffic while I shot back down and over the akatarawas, did you end up having lunch on your own out there andrey?

    Hi Laxi

    Sorry we didn’t meant up with you but…

    Fabian and I were late getting to pak and save. We headed off to join up at the caltex but only got to about Belmount when the car in front of Fabian hit its breaks hard so does Fabian.

    I see this and hit mine but at the time I am on tar seal and my wheels lock and I skid. I manage to bleed off most of the speed but then the bike comes out from under me and I hit the road.

    I got back up on my feet and I get the bike off the road quickly. Quick look at the bike reveals I have lost my foot peg and indicator. The front fairing is scraped up and loose.

    I quickly check my self and find nothing is wrong except a sore ankle. A nice local offers to put the bike in his shed until the tow company can come and pick it up.

    I go to hospital to spend 3 and a half hours waiting to be told my foot is fine.

    Not sure if the bike is a write off yet its going to be taken to Motorad on Tuesday.

    Yeah its not a biggy and i walked away with only a bruise, excess is $950 so not too bad if it gets repaired or written off

    bloody good excuse there feel like a right prat now
    good to hear you're ok, thats all that matters,
    gotta love hutt A&E, 3.5 hours is pretty good for them
    nothing hurt but the pocket is lucky, but its always better to lose money than limbs, hope they sort it out quick and get you back on the road soon
