Point proven.He was probably eyeing up some bird in white stillettos & silicone crash bags,not paying attention to traffic ahead.
Hope your bike`s not too badly damaged & your wrist gets better soon.
If it`s your right wrist you could try one of those manual cruise control thingys marketed by Scottoiler & some others-just takes the strain off the wrist a bit,I think.
Hoping to try & make the Cornwall trip myself if I`ve got enough cash.

hi jabecs a know u said enought BUT I,ve been a member since 2008 not a full member though that been more recent and through the chat room a couldn,t have been made to feel more welcome. I was invited to the campn wkend at cumbria by rossi49 and willow and can i just say that i had no hesitation in packn the car up and heading down by myself even thought i didnt know any1 and i had a great time and made some great freinds, spoke to more people than others but that was just because there was so much going on not because i was excluding people and the same goes with them i didnt think they were excluding me just because they didnt spend every minute of the weekend with me. and i read through the threads and if i dont have a opinion i dont post but i would never oblatrate or try to belittle any1,s sense of humor, values, opinions, morals. I have been made very welcome on this site and hope that i can do the same for other new members

Hey Mad..... Its ok the idea of the thread is to have a rant i know but it was kinda going OTT and after speaking with Matt it was a gentle warning that we had to stop or delete and as deleting is last resort i was hoping that tha would work I am glad to hear that you enjoyed your camping weekend and i agree with the opinion thing I too only post when i feel i need to. The whole idea of this site i thought was for bikers/pillions etc to get together chat post (bike info and less serious stuff) in related threads or start up new ones .....meet socially most importantly tho have a laugh and make good friends which for the most part i have done . Hope to meet you sometime tc x
