First Time Off Today :(

[s0urc3]

Hey all,

It's been a while since being on the forum as I lost interest for a while, especially as I failed my bike test first time round, but now I have my full licence

Anyway, I came off today at a cross roads

Some dick pulled out onto the crossroads from the petrol station on the corner and the two cars infront braked suddenly, I had just gone over a rather large pothole and couldnt stop in time so instead of going int othe car infront (which would have buggered up my insurance) I decided to pull the bike over to the right, leaving me with a rather buggered up right knee cap.

Considering the situation, I got off extremely lightly, and so did my lovely ER-5 ..indicator cap came off which simply popped back in so that was cool..however no bastard stopped!! Everyone drove around me, it's unbelievable, especially considering that I would stop if someone was in distress.

Hopefully I have more experience to multitask and look even further ahead so that it wont happen next time

Anyway, hope the weather isn't getting you all down and off of your bikes, pouring in rain today and the wind was high but that didnt keep me off

Have fun all

Keep your eye on your knee. I smashed into the back of a car a couple of years back and I was fine for two days, then it started to swell and get hot and f**cking hurt!
Layed me up for a week and swelled to 60% larger than the good knee.

Sorry to hear about the accident but im glad everything worked out ok for you and the bike.

Better to be a bit sore than any other alternative

Will just have to wait and see, might go to the walk-in centre and get it checked for peace of mind

I smashed up both my knees years ago. They start throbbing when its about to rain which is pretty useful. Nice to scare kids with, purple scars and all.

my old man came off on a roundabout and every twat just drove around him as well, if it had been another biker he would have stopped

Yeah everyone seems to say the same thing, I don't understand why they don't stop really

Ah well, this means war
