Hi guys I went out for a ride on my Blackbird today with the girlfriend on the back. Got about 15 mins from the house filtering up past stationary traffic only for a young driver to try and do a u turn right at the point when we were about to pass. Long story short, I've got a soar neck and hand, girlfriends legs are bruised to fcuk and is limping quite badly. Bike is completely mashed. And I'm completely gutted
Real sorry to hear that. Hope you and the misses aren't too sore and that the insurance pay up prompt. Good luck getting it all sorted. Feel sorry for the bird as well, cracking bikes.
Sorry to hear that mate but your both ok (apart from bruising)which is the main thing..... so what did dickbrain have to say ?? is he still still walking ?
At least you are both ok, so to speak ! Sorry to hear about the bike, it was perfection, but another will come along, not like the irreplaceable mrs Hope you both heal quickly, the little Sod learns from their stupid mistake and the insurance company come thru for you and the bike.
sorry to hear that mate, glad nobody was seriously injured and hopefully the insurance company will see your side of things. What did the police have to say?
I am so sorry that you have had this accident, but glad to hear you are both as well as you are, hope you heal quickly and get some sleep. Rob and Super Cub.
There was a police woman in her car going to her work right behind the young girl that hit us, so I don't think I need to worry about the claim too much. I must say though I did hit a rage and had tunnel vision for a bit till I calmed down. If it had been a guy I think it may have ended differently. As you guys say it could've been worse and no major injuries. Thing that pissed me off was that there was no indicator n no hesitation for her to just throw her car in our way. Thanks for the comfort guys, it was gutting seeing the bike like that. It really was a beaut.
Gutted for you Colin, but glad no serious long term injuries to either of you. Shame about the bike it was cracking. Hope you both repair very quickly.
Christ lad your 2 are ok ish. Goodness about the police woman beng close. Hopes get it sortd ASAP and are in to too much pain. I've goe thought the car doing a u turn in front of me thing. Hurts like hell
Thanks guys for all the great comments. We're a bit sore just now but we'll be fine. I asked the girlfriend if it has put her off biking, n she said no chance just get yourself a new bike and we'll get out there again. Top woman !!
Fair play to the missus mate ! ps where do you find one that has such a "wonderful way with her beautiful spoken words" ! lol
She defo a keeper, that's for sure. Between this and letting me go on a tour with Jimbo Vills on her birthday you could say she's made of the good stuff.
