No more ride outs for me...

[Mac]

Had a car pull out on me this morning on Commercial Road in Swindon...
Bike is a mess. So is new lid and leathers.
Just got home and taken leathers off. Have got pain in chest at the moment. Off to see the docs...

[onfire23]

Sorry to hear about that Marc hope you're okay. Shout if you need any help today?

[Dabz]

[GixerBoy]

Piccys of the broken Honda......Now he can get a proper bike! ;)

[GixerBoy]

[Nokesy]

really sorry to hear that - look after yourself - if I can help with anything just let me know

[Mac]

Gutted to be honest but the lady driver admitted liability.
Got a producer as a result of it...

[Steev]

FFS mate what a nightmare. Fooking cagers.
I take it you got the all clear from the docs?
Will your insurance cover your lid and leathers.
Its a bit soon I know but what bike do you fancy now?

[Dabz]

it'll be fixable won't it? could have been far worse mate so look on the bright side

[sigg21]

[GIXER_PAUL]

SHEEEEEEET!! Marc mate hope you are ok i cant belive it, at least you walked away at the end of the day i bike can be replaced or fixed but humans often cant. There was a smash outside my front door last week where a women on a busa picked her kid up from school and hit a vw polo the kid had his uniform on and a lid :(

[Rich_aka_Baldspeed]

Mate, Im gutted. Looks a right off from the pics bent frame and all. Similar to Scotts off he had.

Hope you get a new bike sorted ASAP mate. Keeps us posted on the progress dude

[S2_Neo]

Ouch...........Never good.

And to say I was annoyed when my bike fell over last night, and got a scratch on the fairing!.

Hope your okay marc, and that you get something to replace it as soon as :)

[Tommy]

Sorry to hear that hope all good soon!

[Dabz]

credit to mac though for not moping around. "hmm have been knocked off. let's go bike shopping!"

[m1tch]

[furry]

[Gav]

Sorry to hear bout this fella, but as everyone has said at least ya ok...

[russ100]

Good to hear you are ok - sods law about the new lid and leathers !

I get the feeling you'll be back on two wheels faily soon :)

[rex_the_sprocket]

Glad you are ok Mac - show's the benefits of being properly kitted out even for a low speed spill

FFS - should have taught you how to stop properly b4 lessons on gettin yer knee down.

Please don't go down the Gixer route - get something original instead with decent brakes ;)

[GixerBoy]

Why you little....... ::) :P
Rex,you're just scared cus once he gets that 750 its bye bye Prilla boy.........And the've got decent brakes thank you very much! ::) ;)

[Toecutter]

Mark sorry to see this as I only looked at your bike yesterday, If your keen on a Gixer 750 K6 go down Honda and ask for Pup (say your a mate of mine) as i was in their the other day when some chap was going to chop in his new one for a FIREPLACE. If you need help let me know as I did work there.

[blurbiker247]

Hi Mac, heard about this a Avebury, hope your ok mate, bet your feeling a bit sore now, if you need anything or I can help in any way don't hesitate to ask.

[BB]

Jeez, Mac, thats all you need but at least you are ok. Everyone has said what I would have said.

Anything I can do, just ask.

BB

[R1chie]

sh*t news mac..............at least no serious damage done to yourself which is the main thing.

[Amante_271]

OUCH!! Heard something on the radio travel news and hoped it wasnt one of ours! :( Looks nasty! You hurt? what was the Docs verdict?

[JamesHockley]

Sorry about your smash mate, I do know how you feel. Still at least she admitted it was her mistake.

[RVFBabe]

So sorry to hear this Mac :'(

Glad you're ok, make sure you rest though!

When Scott was knocked off, his insurance paid out for both the lid and his all weather gear he had at the time, hope this works out for you too.

[BB]

Sometimes your kit is not included on your bike insurance - depends what you asked for in the 1st instance - but may be claimed back through the household insurance.
BB

[Dutch]

Shouldnt make any odds about whether your kit is insured or not if you claim off the other party as it will all be paid for but make sure you can give receipts and pictures of everything.
This is what happened in my claim. If you are fully comp and claiming off your insurance first and then claiming it back from the other partys insurance then it might take some time to get the money for the leathers and sutff but the bike should happen quite quickly.
Really sorry to hear that this has happened but these things are there to try us and train us so it will be one more thing to look out for in the future.
Hope your ok and that everything is going better now.
Andy

[Scott_W]

:o :o :o :o

Mac, as everybody has said, at least you are OK. The best thing I did was getting back on a bike as soon as I could.

[GixerBoy]

Yeah,have told him Scott,if he hasn't got a bike by the track day that he's gotta ride mine!! :o :)

[Scott_W]

:o :o ;D

[BB]

a great honour

[GixerBoy]

You said it BB but i'm sure if I give him a few lessons before hand he'll be able to handle the HUGE amount of power that the Missile produces...Either that or will have to pull a plug cap off!! ;) ;D ::)

[GIXER_PAUL]

Either that or will have to pull a plug cap off!! ;) ;D ::)

hahahaha fair play there is an offer for mac, although i dont think i personally could go from a 600 not long after passing my test and hoping onto a though for a track day, but if he does GOOD LAD :)

[RedVee]

he wont need to use all the power available just what he needs

[Dabz]

can't imagine mac turning down the offer to ride dion's bike on the track to be honest :P

[BB]

Me neither! I'll tell you a secret while someone is not about - I've ridden a gixer in the past! ;D

[Dabz]

I'm shocked! I thought you were a classic girl through and through

so did ya like it? maybe this is why you're looking to ride an r1? ;)

[BB]

It was a long time ago - also rode a CBR600 about a bit too. Didn't own either, they belonged to some good mates. Yes great fun, I was running around on a raced up RG250 at the time. Thought seriously about getting a CBR but then events got in the way. :(

Always had the '69 Triumph on the road at the same time. :)

[HC8]
