Have hospitals set up internet access so we can all go on BCF to post up crash threads?

Bloody nice of them!

Hope you get better soon Jack, how long you in for?

Take the free drugs and have a nice night with the nurses.

unlucky man,

I have a nasty gash on my right knee from low-siding a planet myself, back when I was 18. But you're right, at least they crash pretty well!

Get well soon and remember the old cliche, chicks dig scars

Well, i'm out of hospital. Physio was an arse pain, but at least i can move. The hole in my knee was rather nice. There was one about 2 inches long and 1 inch wide which went down to bone, which was rather interesting, and another one which was about an inch in diameter just above it.

The cause of the crash appears to be gravel mid-corner, but i don't really want to have a go at the highways agency or council because i simply cannot be arsed. The policeman who attended said that there was no gravel on the corner, but he didn't look to where the sliding started, he only looked at the area where i came off. I'll get some pics of the bike and my gear up.

[McGee]

Unlucky mate glad you had your gear on and your some what okay.

Get well soon!

And on another note we all need to stop crashing lol bcf members are getting owned so far this year

sorry to hear about that, hope you are ok, ill get you a pint when i see you , to dull the pain of course.
if you need to borrow a bike you can use mine

According to the police officer who took us North lot at Bike-safe, the local councils now just pay up for lack of repair/maintenance without even looking at the suspected problem!! The government has not given them enough money to maintain the roads so instead they just place what money they do have aside for claims. It's apparently a lot less hassel to do this and they pretty much pay out for motorcycles now no questions asked. Worth a shot as you will get money back for your bike and without losing your own insurance companies no-claims.

I'm not claiming, due to the fact that if i do, my license will be torn up infront of me.

[ram_doom]

Glad your not too beaten up mate, seems everybody's crashing. I think the only thing keeping me from a spill and a stay at hospital is the fact that my bike's off the road more than on

Dang, take it easy on the recovery Mr. Cheese.

the bars are aftermarket ones, the previous owner chucked it down the road and the OE bars died. It now looks like one of those japanese speedway-esque bikes which have one handlebar bent up to allow them to lean stupidly far.

i know where you mean they put a load of gravel down on the central reservations for some unknown reason, and its been blowing/moving onto the road ever since. i dunno about claiming if you havnt got the right paper work its like me doing the same and then claiming. although me mate will tell you about his cousin who was being pursued on a stolen bike and got knocked of by amember of the public he deserved it but got thousands in compensation. gonna say though now might be a good time to do your forks as you are of the road and you could see if youve bent them when you fell off p.s.
get back on that horse

[landy.s11a]

Hey Jack glad you're OK, mend soon.

And this is on a 125 is it!?

wow....not gunna lie i'm a little put off

[Method]

[StottyB]

put off that such a horrible accident can happen on a 125 with an experienced rider wearing good quality gear. I'm only on a moped but buying a 125 at the weekend. The concept is a little daunting now!
