First topic message reminder :

It is with a heavy heart that I have to tell you I have come off the Cat.

While on a rideout in Snake pass I hit a bit of oil on one of the bends near the end on the down hill section. The back wheel lost grip and the bike went for a low side but then decided to grip and flip, I was sent flying and stopped just short of the Armco. The Cat was not so luck and hit the Armco hard with the top of the bike. :( wall

I just don't have the words to express how gutted I am.

Ive had, what the consultant thought were ganglions removed from my knuckles, had them for years but riding with kevlar armour gloves has made them painful so in a 'simple' procedure i had them removed under a local aneasthetic. funny a friend of mine, who is a nurse, is also having one removed under a general, in hindsite she knows something i didn't!!

I too am left handed, luckily and even though I'm not supposed to be driving my boss kicked up that much of a fuss that I've been in the office all week bored to tears because I can't go out and see my customers.

His parting shot when I left tonight was "are you having that f*cking thing removed on Monday and getting back to work"?? Well bad news for him is it'll be replaced by a smaller one on Monday but the stitches will be staying so no driving next week.

Crap side to that is the bike stays in as well:(

Your skin milord. I'll wager it ne'er felt the lash of a cat, been rubbed with salt, and then flayed off by a pirate chief to make fine stockings for his best cabin boy.

Gotta love Blackadder and Tom Baker :-)

Didn't think about how I wrote that but then as soon as you use the word 'Helmet' it is always going to descend. Laughing

Yep and it shows I definately went face first. Will have another Shark but don't like the visor fixing on this one and it has to have Union Jack within the design.

I think I will be in for physio as the shoulder is still giving me grief and the throut still hurts to swallow. Had a shocker this morning when I coughed up some blood but looks like I may have had a small nose bleed in the night and put it down to that. The company has paid for a year at Balantynes so should be able to get fit for next year, result.

Still got a few months to heal before I need a bike although I want one now! wall
and no, Not a Woolly one like in the other thread! pmsl

Grantham Honda still have a Hutchy Blade that has a map of the Isle of Man TT Circuit all over it, but promised Daughter I would not just yet:

It was my plan to get 2 years under my belt before I got one, well I made 16months and had a lot of experience in that time but:
  • Braking a promise or talking Daughter out of it would not set a good example to her.
  • My Insurance is likely to be more now.
  • I need to be in a financial position to loose money as I would put a lot of miles on it! whistle


I will stick with my plans for the next bike, continue to drool every time I see a FireBlade and maybe after another a year I will be in a position to get my dream bike - after all that time it better live upto expectations! pmsl
