Re: I'm sooooo tempted...

["Ian Lowe" <ian@xxxxxxx>]

What is it with right turns?

I wrote off my first bike, a Yamaha RD125LC, when a driver with a couple of
drinks in him "didn't see me". I got away with broken bones in my
hands, and
a chunk out of my leg (nice scar) from the ariel on the wing.

My mate who was riding pillion got thrown into the road, and landed on his
chin. The few moments when I pulled myself out of the car, and looked to
see
if he was moving were probably the longest of my life! as it was, we were
both largely okay.

I still ride though. and my YZF600R Thundercat

gets serviced in a week or so for the season :)
