Lucky you. It'll be March at the earliest before I can get out on 2 wheels again.

Is that through choice mate ? or due to other things ?
Big bummer though having to wait another few months :o

That ain't the half of it. The bike has been tucked away since August cos of work commitments.

Oh yeah? Sounds ominous.

Glad you're relatively okay Dabz, and that the damage to your bike isn't as bad as it could've been.

I think the ice caught quite a few of us unawares this morning. Almost went for a spin in the Hilux - literally! :o

Glad your ok Dabz, not too many bruises, bikes can be fixed via ebay and similar, legs are more difficult to replace.....

Was effing slippery, had a few little slides that morning, way three cars inplanted in the ditch, hedge and lampost....

Sorry to hear that Dabz, as has been said, the bike can be fixed !
I went for a late blat down to Poole last night and it was really slippy, froze on the way back too, even with my new sexy silk under-gloves :-/
