I never told my Mum about my bin, for the same reasons.
I did manage to show just about everyone else I knew my badly sprained ankle and other grazes though.

Hmm.
Sympathy is for the weak.

There's a slight difference between keeping the truth from you mother and keeping the truth from your life-partner. Just a little...

Hey JR, I have been there and done that kind of relationship. This Missus is fantasitc and I can get away with anything I want to. 98 times out of 100 I don't want to get away with it and will talk it through. This was a conscious decision not to cause her upset and distress. My call was that as it was a minor incident (two well iced bruises and $82.50 worth or repairs). I have read the posts on here and I guess that only I know my missus (I hope) the way I do. And I still think that this was the right call for this situation.Bear in mind that if he has the option of doing that, or having the woman do her utmost to actually stop him from riding his motorcycle, he might feel as though he's kinda run out of options.
Being up-front only works when the other party is willing to be reasonable.
I sniff the tangy scent of an ill-advised relationship.
In such situations, some people prefer to hide things from their partner to maintain a 'comfortable' status quo, and some people prefer to admit their mistake and regain their freedom... you pays your money and takes your choices, etc.
Thanks to all for some great comments.

I don't think I was keeping the truth from anyone.
Keeping the truth implies that I have lied about something to cover wrongdoing.
Having an incident on the way home from work isn't quite the same as banging her extremely her horny younger sister. Fortunately I think enough of my wife not to go there or anywhere else similar.

Ayup, there are things better much left unsaid and stoical stiff upper lip is to be employed at times when vouchsafed females, purporting to know your best interests at heart are around.
The aloof, almost circumspect and callow remark of "I pulled a muscle", "gashed my limb/bit of flesh on a nail/splinter", "tripped and came a real cropper" etc al., are all part of what we do to maintain a veneer of normality.
It just worries them so, the assurances and placating of their ill at ease feelings is a ritual most of us are interminably aware...
As you all were bikers, never a foot wrong, both tyres on the level and sitting at the speed limit!

Fashionably late.
Wow..
Guess I have a bad habit of being honest, I told my other half straight away.. she has always told me that she knows motorcycles are dangerous but she'd never think of stopping me doing something that makes me happy.
I told her straight away, she was rightly concerned but glad I told her and was happy to know I was relatively okay bar a few broken bones she was adamant on helping mend! I remember her telling me she was glad she was the first I contacted, she said if something were to happen to me she'd want to be the first one to know so she can come see me.
I don't know how I could keep something like that from someone I'm spending my life with?

No, that's not it. At some point your mother is more than likely to have lied to you (Santa Claus?) in order to maintain some sort a blissful illusion. You return the favour, at least with comfortable silence.
If your partner tries to do the same, you ought to consider getting a new one.
One thing you can not get a new one of is integrity.
