I'm not too sure, could be anything between 40-100km/h, I don't look at my speed when I take a corner or lean over.PoP_PiN wrote:So what speed were you doing?
You could be right about the tyre bit. My money has always been ready for a course, but they closed down Darlington Park!Shifty wrote: The other possibility is that you don't generally push the limits of the tyres, perhaps on this occasion you went past your normal cornering angle onto a smoother part of the tyre?
May be a good excuse to save up for a braking & cornering course?
I don't think it's the vibration, I've got used to that already.Neilp wrote: this might have been caused by that front end vibration you have been talking about?
I am surprised at the road rash on the elbow/arm!
The abrasion on the elbow/arm is caused by the inside of the jacket.
I just took out the bandages to air the wound, had to cover them as I walked alot around the office. Realised that the abrasions on my knees were also caused by the inside of the jeans. Although the pics look like it's a big wound but it's actually very very superficial, hardly any blood. That wouldn't be possible if the knee was in direct contact with the tarmac.
Thank u guys(& gals) for the concerns, but do remember that I shall be the only one...
red_dave: I think I shall call that intersection 'The RG intersection' ?

Sorry to hear about this, but yes it could have been the rain, there was a lot, although the road does look dry in the pics?

The road was not wet wet wet, but I'm pretty sure it was moist.

Crikey RG, not a good start to the year, looks like you and the bike will heal up soon.
It seems like you cant get rid of that bike, like when the car knocked it over and now this.
Hopefully it doesn't knock your confidence around too much but it is sure strange why it let go on you

I can't take days off, too much shit to do at work. I've gotta break something before I can convince myself to take days off.

What a bugger RG! I am glad to see that you seem ok, and the wounds to you are only superficial and to the bike, cosmetic. Look after yourself!
