Just lost the front end going round a medium sized roundabout in the wet at around 20mph

NOT ONE BUGGER HELPED. Stupid car drivers.

Luckily enough though both I and the bike were fine bar a few scratches and grazes, so I picked myself up an carried on to asda to pick up the curry that I went for. Laughing

My own fault for not being catious enough in the first wet conditions in ages. Oh well, lesson learnt, the wrong way mind. Embarassed

Nar shared a chicken tikka masala and a chicken jalfrezi with the other half. Accompanied by a bottle of Grolsch obviously. Drooling

Too much lean angle on cold tyres in wet conditions. I was meant over far further that what I should of been and I know that, but I'd just been watching YouTube videos of guys drifting supermotos, not that I was trying to do the same. Mr. Green

Now that is a proper curry.

Chicken Jalfrezi and a bottle of beer.

i did a similar thing in the wet although the tarmac changed half way round that was faaaar less grippy, cue elbow to the splean and amber-lamp jobby. had some chav come bimble over casually as i was writhing around in pain playing music from his phone and go 'errrr what do i do?' lol. then when the ambulance car turned up she wouldnt let me sit in the back of the car cos i would get the seats muddy Rolling Eyes so i had to sit out in the rain till the proper amber lamp turned up

A Phal is a proper curry. In fact, any curry with copious amounts of https://www.chilliworld.com/SP6.asp?p_id=63 that added is a proper curry. Unless you value most of your internal organs, in which case it probably wouldn't.

At least it didn't happen on the way back home, or the curry would have been squashed and made an awful mess. Karma
