    Good to hear you are up and about, keep moving around ... you'll heal faster (within reason of course!) Don't worry too much about the bike, she'll be fine when you get around to her!

    And how lucky were you to have an Ambuck on the spot?

    Make sure you have really good tyres (I had new tyres but yeah just make sure)
    Make sure if they corner says 65 you slow down to 30 …. Especially when its wet.
    Make sure you have full gear even if it costs more
    Make sure you pray before you leave
    Make sure you have Full insurance + contents insurance
    Sean learns well.
    Your cornering speed will rise with experience.
    You should also get your head around it's probably not your last spill either.

    Dude I hate finance cos people get dumb stuff like phones and playstations etc and pay too much but I betcha you'll pay some gear off faster that your legs grow back and it'll cost you less in interest than whatever job you'll get with one hand? Sorry if thats a bit hard out but I just ate the proverbial shit too and my gear took the hit for me well. I woulda been way worse off if I was in jeans etc. ATGATT, seriously.
    I'm selling my new riding gear!! Only worn a few times get a deal Kiwibikers!!
