They say trouble comes in 3's! I should be right from here.

Post by Strika »

#1 was the bike falling off the stand.
#2 was just overbalancing on a loose metal grate in the car park half an hour ago and scratching the other side! :?
#3 happenned trying to stop #2!!! I have torn/snapped my Hamstring/some ligament in the process!!!!!! Just waiting for a mate to come get me and take me to acco and emerg!!!!!! :? :? :cry: :cry: :cry: Been a farkin mint holiday but! :wink:


P.S. I had just returned from a putty run to make sure the new left hand indicator I fitted (down in the carpark utilising just the quality tools that the 9 comes with! :lol: ) stayed put and blinked when it should and didn't when it wasn't supposed too. Luckily, I don't have to replace the right indicator! It survived!!! Thank god! the other one took me 45 mins!!! :shock: Oh, and I'll post a pic of a VFR400 sitting against the armco looking very very very bent and broken. I sure hope the rider survived????

Funny thing is Dave, on the way out, I rode up Windsor road real slow looking for the gates to the estate to drop in and missed them somehow???? then on the way back, I went even slower and thought I couldn't miss it!! But I still couldn't find the feckers!!!! And by that time I was due to head back to shower and change for dinner. But now, with a torn Hammy, I ain't going anywhere!!! I had to order some home delivery and get them to bring a loaf of bread and a few things as well!!! I have to Hobble slowly anywhere I wanna go! Tomorrow will be interesting trying to get to work!!!!! :x
