Regular weekend rides

[BoristheBiter]

I'm going to give it a miss, it's raining up here

[BoristheBiter]

What's happened guys (Duck, Ntox) ? you both go down to the KB rally and now both bikes are out of action?
Sounds like a story there.

Just read the other thread. glad you are both OK.
Duck i think i would have just sat there and cryed.

[yachtie10]

they both fell off
their storey is there was diesel on the road.
read the Turangi thread for the storey

[BoristheBiter]

just did.
and it's still raining.

[Ntoxcated]

I didn't fall off - my bike just fell over with me on it still At that point I let bike go its own way

[OutForADuck]

Not me... in true BEAST form my bike shooked me off in a highside and threw me down the road in disgust!!!! I counted something like 12 tumbles before the world stopped going round. I don't think it appreciated me taking it out in the rain all day!!!

I think my bike will be off the road a little longer than Ntox, no insurance and need to pick up stuff from ebay so facing delivery delays galore!!! But it will be back, with me squeezed into new leathers!!

Its just like the T-shirt says.. shit happens!!!

Hey Ntox... I actually hit some diesel in the car picking up the bike yesterday... slid, complete with trailer... what the hell are you supposed to do when your trailer slides????? (I was still wondering when it all came back in a straight line).

The important thing is your alright
the leg OK?

[OutForADuck]

Yeah I'm bouncy.... swelling going down rapidly and brusing starting to as well. Alls well that ends... well something like that.

We were only tottling along at about 100kph or so could have been much worse.

As one mate said... had bigger falls out of bed!!!

I was still behind the car waiting for next straight so I was going even slower. Probably why I had no visible bruises

[BoristheBiter]

Well it's good to hear your both OK.

So your starting to turn a nice shade of yellow now?

[OutForADuck]

Sort of a puce really Yeah its disappearing quite quickly now... I think I'll barely remember the limp by mid week. So not bad for an old fart like me

Aiming to be back on the road in plenty of time for the Cold Kiwi!!! So I had better pull finger I recon!!!

Desiel on corner in rain = very slippery.

Actually, the road was pretty straight.
