Rideout crash

12 of us went on a rideout last night, i crashed twice! both left
hand bends on country roads.

Is this an unusual occurance on a rideout?

Does anyone know where i could pick up some GS500 plastics on the cheap

 

Ride our own ride, and carry a mobile phone.

HTH

Paul.

 

Not if you're a twat with an inability to ride a commuter bike, no.

 

Have you been called a twat since a young age deadmail At burnt.org.uk

Do you feel the need to end your posts with some manhood enhancing
letters?

 

Let me say this then. Anyone that crashes two times in one rideout is a
twat.

It's all the rage here.

 

Blimey, a bite already and the days hardly started!

<marks thread watch>

<cough> Sig seps.

 

Possibly but what point are you making?

Well, clearly I felt the need to communicate my 'stable of desirable
motorcycles' in my signature. I wouldn't have done it otherwise.

Why do you ask so many obvious questions, are you simple as well as
being an incapable twat on a bike? Life must be hard.

 

Blank .sig's are *so* 1992.

 

It was in 2003

 

I notice s/he/it didn't try to refute your suggestion, just tried to shift
the emphasis away ...

 

Only for total twats. Shame you didn't collect one of your mates as you
went down. Extra points for that.

Yes.

 

Did you notice that little keyhole on the side of the steering head?

Ask somebody who was following you. They might have picked some up.

So, it's a common occurrence for non-twats?

I don't follow your logic, old man.

Get some training or get off the fucking road.

 

To inject a slighly serious comment: talking to a bike plod on the
Ridesafe weekend, it seems that the most common cause of fatalities
amongst riders in the Dyfed-Powys region (mostly English riders down
for a hoon on some superb roads) is an off on an open road, most
commonly on left-hand bends. If other vehicles are involved, is it
generally as an object to be hit, rather than a cause of the crash.
This does suggest that there are some seriously shit riders out
there. Or, rather, some riders with seriously shit over-estimations
of their own or their bike's capabilities. How hard is it to take a
left hand bend and a) not fall off, or b) not hit a bus coming the
other way?

 

I might add that a list of people to contact if you do bin it, attached
to the mobile phone, might be a handy addition. Saves questions later.

 

That was just after I joined.
