Yes, sadly Braddo broke his bike yesterday on the River Rampage ride.
Some photos will come up later but in short, the bike went into the Armco up in the twisties on the Gwyder Hwy.
Brad let it go and rolled to a stop up against the rails. He has some minor grazes, a sore ankle and a very bruised ego. Along with a bit of back pain but he is up and about and nearly back to his chirpy self.
Apart from that we had a gigantic weekend on the road.
More of this story will come later.
We all split up in different directions to head home this morning.
I am hoping that everyone else gets back safe.

Here is a photo or two of the scene and bike.
I'll let Braddo show any other photos that he wants to.
The left side of the bike is the worst.
It went down on the left, hit the fence front on and then spun around and hit it again with the back.
