In no specific order.......
1...Damon '98 ZX9R Toast.
2...Dave3 '02 ZX9R Toast.
3...Hoffy's Rello '06 Aprilia Tuono? Nearly toast, quick thinking gent, me thinks.
4...MadKaw '04 ZX10R Missed the 3 bikes and scratched his mirror on the rock wall as he pulled up rather sharpish.
5...Ty '99 ZX9R Toast
6...Glen '05 ZX10R Missed and then proceeded to scrub 2000ks off his tyres trying to find somewhere as quickly as possible to make phone call.
7...Hoffy '04 ZRX 1200 Toast
Total of 3 ZX9R's in heaven and a ZRX1200 to join them, bad fucking day all round
Westpac proceeded to take Tony(ty), Hoffy and Dave3 to Newcastle General hospital, I went home on the back of a great blokes ZX10R, poor rear shock.
Due to insurance company disputes (who is, who isn't or who is paying who, blah de blah de blah
)unfortunatelythe ride report will have to wait.
All I can say is, keep ya concentration up, ya wits about ya and ya rubber down, cus I wouldn't wish the last 9 months on anyone else
Take it easy

Found this last night while searching for a gratuitous bum shot for the "hot Riders" thread
The results of the bowls lady with had stopping while turning into her house over the hill incident
Shattered left tib fib, 4 breaks and lots and lots of pieces. When they put the pin through apparently it was just shattering the bone due to the leg and bone being crushed between bike and car and the bone being fractured from top to bottom bar about 3 inches top and bottom luckily (note the screw holes).
Touch and go whether it stayed so lucky it was below the knee.
After the stack I hopped to the gutter (as the bike was coming after me) with the leg just rag dolling below, was NOT a good feeling.
It didnt break the skin (Thank God for leathers), those scabs are from blood seeping through the skin from bruising and eventually covered most of the leg. Hope the colours come out OK.
But it does NOT hold a candle to the Putty... OMFG

And Red Dave you are a mad rat

Just because you CAN ride, doesn't mean you SHOULD
I don't think anything holds a candle to the great putty - that is truly scary shit...
I didn't crash in 06 cause I barely touched the bike - was terrified most of the year after my off in 05 - it seems though that speed really isn't the dieciding factor in terms of injury levels but cars are.
My off was at 30kmph on King's way near Albert Park rd intersection when the guy in the lane to my right decided to stop in traffic to let his wife out cause it was near her work - she opened her door straight into me cause he was on the white line when he stopped - result: I collected the door with my right leg and proceeded to then hit almost every panle on the bike before finally coming to a rest under the rear of a car in front of me. Snapped a tendon in half and tore the ligaments in the right ankle - 3 mths off work and 12 mths physio - body healed much quicker than the mind though - still terrified although I finally took the bike out Christmas eve (18 mths without riding)
