    Could happen to any of us. Shame we have to not only be mindful of our own actions but of the actions of others too. The roads are dangerous enough without pillocks that that.

    So glad you're ok, sounds like your quick reactions saved it from being alot worse. Hope R1 bloke is grateful you didn't just steam into him.

    Hope you have a speedy recovery.

    Honestly thought I'd gone through him , had I hit him I would've probably killed the guy or really badly injured him. I guess looking for 'the gap' was enough to wipe the front end off his bike and forks along with trashing poor Eris my triple.

    I guess a little bit of experience mixed with a lot of luck and me being as fit as hell saved me. No breaks, just bruises and lots of emotion. (its a chick thing!)

    Thanks everyone just feel at the moment if I didn't have bad luck I'd not have any bloody luck at all (those who know me will understand that sentiment right now ) x

    Lisa, Really really gutted to hear about your off and sincerely hope you GWS.

    I know its a cliche but as I have said many times at the numerous RTI's I have attended the most important thing is that you are here to tell us about it. The bike can be replaced whereas you cant.

    If I can be of assistance in anyway, i.e. advice etc etc then please don't hesitate to drop us a line.

    Have you had any indication from the police if they are looking to prosecute the other rider?

    Glad your ok, that's the main thing.

    Agree with Caz, the bike will get fixed.
