Got taken out by a cage who did a U turn in front of me on Monday.
He's hit the left side of the bike as I've gone past him and I've been high sided, rolled a few times and and sat up in the middle of the road looking back the way I came and at my bike.
Left leg didn't want to work so I worked my way to the curb and waited for the ambos.
Nothing broken, just really sore left leg and left shoulder/arm.
Bike didn't look too good, I'm about to call the shop and see if they rekon it's a write off.
Take care ppl, they're all out to get us.
