Thinking to myself why did I test ride the BMW S1000RR. It's an amazing bike but insurance is just saying 'nah mate! Ok I lie I had 1 try to unsure me....only £9K and that was on a used one that cost £9K. Surely I'm not that bad of a rider to warrant that kinda money!!

Bummed out now

A bikers version of a therapy session.. Blasting over the mountain twisting the grip for more, the realising your already on the stop in 6th (rock)

Makes up for all the rain and stress of the last 48 hours (cool)

I know I saw that :( all for the wrong reasons, but hey shit happens. It just makes me laugh the things people say on some of these threads.
Being on this planet as long as I have, and endured plenty more abuse face to face worse than this, its water off a ducks back, just amazes me how people are. Can they really be this abusive in real life or just think its acceptable because its on line! (shake) If it is how these people go through life on a daily basis i feel sad.

It dont help that people who know me keep tagging me! gits! (raaar) (facepalm) (rolf)

I haven't seen it anywhere else yet apart from here so haven't seen the comments, theres a lot of 'I know everything' types . I did see your foot though yesterday, I hope you heal up quickly looks pretty nasty.

Like Rossgo, all I knew of this was the link to YouTube. (over 10k hits now mate) From the clatter as you landed I was surprised to read that you & the bike weren't both out of action on the spot.
Bloody lucky you didn't come off worse mate, GWS.

Rode back from Heysham. It's not too bad a ride to be fair, boring but quick enough considering how far north it is.

Bike is all tucked away. It needs a good clean but I CBA

Got my dressing gown on and I'm supping tea
