Off!!

[ninjababe01]

I had my first off today :'(, I wasn't even going that fast less than 5mph but quite a lot of damage to my bike when I fell down some steps in to some poor chaps front garden :-[. I am okay no physical damage just a bit shocked I guess.

Thank you to Iceman, Fireblade and ER-5 for your help today and lifting my bike out of the garden for me and all the help you gave me. Thank you Iceman for making sure I got to Jct 16 M4 safely too .

I am back home and my noble steed is in the garage awaiting it's repair : :'(

Never mind NB, at least there is no damage to youself.......the bike can easily be fixed.

Still can't work out the steps connection (not the pop band btw )

[ninjababe01]

I turned right out of a car park onto the road and there were houses on the left with steps down to them. I was going so slowly as always exit carefully, not carefully enough this time : . The next thing I knew I was under my bike down some steps :-[ . I think I must have looked at the houses rather than where I was going if you know what I mean for just a split second and everyone knows that where you look is generally where you end up :-[ stupid I know

Sorry to hear this and I hope that you are ok and not too much damage to you.
Have a long warm soak in a bath.

ah right.....well everyone has made mistakes somewhere along their biking lives. At least you're ok and the bike is easily repairable.

Yes I am fine just a little shocked that's all and my textiles and boots etc... are still in tact even though I went under the bike
