My first spill

[damnas]

Albeit on a Pizza bike.

It was pissing down, puddles everywhere, oil (rainbow streaks on the road) approaching the end of the road, leading onto a main road, and see a car turning onto the road, so I move onto the left to allow him some more room, but as I moved to the left, I don't know what happened, but for some reason the bike just lost all grip and ended up on the floor.

Before I knew it, my ankle was trapped under the p.o.s moped, and I panicked for a few seconds before I realised that I could lift the bike off, dusted myself off and checked to see if I wasnt hurt or anything

Bruised and sore, it's won me sympathy votes from the girlfriend! Am a bit nervous but I'm sure that'll pass. I'm pretty sure I underestimated the effects of rain and the road conditions, so it was quite stupid of me really. Lesson learned.

AND. Reassuring to know that the protective gear actually, protects.

Just another notch added to the headboard of life. Like you say you'll know better next time.

It's got to be the best way to come off. You're not injured, nor is your bike, and you've taken away a chunk of experience which everyone needs.

[jok]

Feel like a rite of passage, doesn't it?

The good bit is that you (sort of) know why you came off, will have more respect for similar situations and, above all, weren't hurt (bruises don't count ). Treat it as a free lesson in "What Can Go Wrong" and count your blessings.

Last night was the first time i had been out in the propper pissing wet (laying water everywhere) on my 600

I was a tad too throttle happy and was spinning everywhere

Great fun

I hit a ford at 40mph once.

Makes standing water seem like nothing

First time I've ever seen one, had to pull over and try to shake myself dry afterwards. I couldn't understand why anyone would build a road through a river

(It's great fun in a car though, as long as you have the windows done up)

Sorry to hear about your off, but bonus about the pizza

What's it like doing Pizza Deliveries?

[Trill]

Got caught about 45 miles away once, Had to ride home in the pouring rain.
Had my first experience of aqua planing, and hopefully my last :p

North sea was trying to retake the land by air drop

Glad to hear you're ok. I came off the other day too but I'm too embarrassed to say why

[tribal_tiger]

I did Pizza deliverey a while bike and it's bloody ace!

You're on a bike that won't go over 40 (30 if it was an older bike) but it's a right giggle!

People in cars do seem to aim at you though! I remember having to do a quick dodge of a car on a roundabout. I kinda bounced it up onto the roundaabout blowing both tyres! It was right outside the base, so pick up a new bike and off you go again!

We were on Honda SH 50's or some Peugeot POS.

I'd quite like to do it again!
