    The copper who witnessed my eldest daughter being knocked off her RD125
    twin, by some myopic woman in a Golf this morning in Warwick. Caz is
    bruised and battered[1], but otherwise fine after hitting the deck and
    rolling through one of those plastic 'Keep Left' bollards. It's a shame
    the same can't be said of the RD, which she rebuilt herself. Mr Copper
    also arranged for her bike to be recovered back to her house while she
    was at the local hospital getting checked out. Good job she wasn't on
    her CBR6.

    [1] Maybe she'll put the armour back in her waterproof jacket now. "It's
    too bulky" was the excuse.

    I hope see is fine. If I can help put the RD back together, I am only down
    the road.

  3. Ouch. GWS and hope the copper is feeling vindictive to the Golf-driving
    bitch.

    you've never made a mistake?

    Jesus I don't feel vindictive towards the people that I've had accidents
    with; only the one where it wasn't an accident and the one where she
    denied all liability (rather than accepting 50%) afterwards.

    Good job she's OK apart from some bruises.

    Proportionally, I've had more near misses in Warwick than in any other
    town I've ridden through. Presumably a combination of lots of old people
    popping down to the post office and flustered mums on the school run
    combined with some quite bizarre traffic 'management' in the centre of
    town. I tend to avoid it if possible. There but for the grace of God go
    I. Luckily there's a convenient A&E hospital there.

    Bikes are replaceable and people aren't. Everything else is bollocks.

    GWS to Caz.

  10. I do feel irritated, yes. We all make mistakes, so you're right there,
    but really crap driving that results in injury always seems to lead to a
    complete denial of responsibility a(by perpetrator and insurance firm
    alike) and a lot of hassle to get a result.

    But then I consider the mistakes I've made which could have hurt
    someone, and luckily didn't, so I suppose the only answer is:

    "whatever".

    Lozzo was seen penning the following ode to ... whatever:
    GWS Caz. And I raise my glass to the copper.

    I thought now you could get replacement ones if you had testicular
    cancer?

    Well done that man.
    They learn, sometimes faster than others.

    What is wrong with the bike then?
