Yeah, it was just a little off at a give way sign.
She had the option of pushing her luck and rushing into busy traffic, trying to catch the bike by putting her leg under it or letting it go. She decided on the last one. Smart choice IMO.
Bugger all damage but it meant that I had to ride from the island to Cranborne to find and fit a clutch lever. The only other dammage was some scratches on the stater cover. No fairing dammage so that is pretty good. Got back for the 125's so that was ok.
The main thing is that she is perfectly fine, just a little embarrased considering all of the bikes around. Surprising how many riders zoomed by while a beautifull lady stands above a downed bike in the middle of an intersection.
It seems to me that with every passing year of the GP, riders do more stupid, risky and impatient things.
For fucks sake, if you are already in the emergency lane with someone who is obviously rattled by the intense nature of the traffic, DON'T overtake on the left. (please excuse my language) Bunch of c*******.
A complete dissregard for safety and for what??? a few extra seconds??? There was a fleet of 's around EVERY corner.....
What is happening in the bike world. Are we not pulling our mates into line anymore??? OR have we arrived at the point where it is all for me and f*** the rest? Cheers,
Holge
