Hey guys, just posted this on the SASS thread:

Nass and Sass

Hey guys, i hail from Nass.

Haven't asked any Nass guys yet but since we are in the "quieter" months i thought it would be cool to do a one off combined Nass/Sass night, trade secrets, have competitions, and enjoy a nice cold beer afterwards.

Just a thought, though i think it would be really cool and a lot of fun!!

what are your thoughts?

[Armi]

what are your thoughts?

I'm down with that

[The Singing Chef]

sweet i'll look for a carpark that we can hoon around in, how was your ride bro? and im in for tonight

[Armi]

It was good. Didn't take any breaks so I started to get a bit sore towards the end. Tyres are likely to be properly scrubbed in now

And I took that road you suggested starting from the SH16 side. Couple of corners that went on for a bit longer than I was expecting to give me a little fright

[skelig]

Im keen for that tonight

Yeah, I made it home alright. Wrist is still sore as a bastard so I might need to get an xray tomorrow

呵呵是我！除了那个小事故以外今晚过得很好-下周见！

At least the bike has screw all damage and you didn't have to learn losing the front the hard way into a ditch or oncoming traffic! That's what it's all about I reckon eh.

Let us know how the x-ray turns out! And I wouldn't want to make a habit of unloading a bike on your steep driveway!

I'm off my bike for a bit now too, had a car pull an illegal u-turn directly in front of me this afternoon, so the poor zx-6r is currently missing most of it's front fairing and is in the dealers getting assessed. Luckily the car driver owned up and neither of us got hurt. And I knew there was a reason I hated riding in the central city.....

See you all as soon as I can!

bad luck guys. sorry to hear about your accident. Everyone keep your eyes open

[The Singing Chef]

That sucks man, so soon too Wish you all the best for your recovery bro!! and for your bike too

[Armi]

Went to the doctors today, they said the xray looked fine so off I went to uni when I got a call. Upon closer inspection I had a very small fracture. Sat a physics test left handed, teacher will enjoy that and now I have a cast on. No riding for a couple of weeks.

I also inspected my bike cause I noticed the right foot peg was on a slight angle. It's mounting plate thing has cracked

Guys, Sorry to hear about your off's. Glad that both of you are ok (well not at least too badly damaged).

Debrief your accidents in your head, look for the things (plural) that went wrong leading up to the falls. You will find something that changes the way you ride, makes you safer. Remember there is always more than one thing that contributed to the fall, not just the most obvious one.

Hope to see you all back soon.

I think it could be just cause to fit a nice loud exhaust Should hear back on Monday whether they will repair it or replace it with a new one. Just beware of black Primera's swerving accross your lane over double yellow lines....fail.
