Hello all, bushboy here with bert in france on way to moorocco. All going well until 3pm today. Bert was bored on the road and thought best to try to ride on the armco barrier at 40 mph.. Not good. Bert ok, me shook up, thought dead as like rag doll. Then after I pulled up he was/is fine. Sat here at bar. Beer, thinking how fecking lucky he is. I well shit myself, still 3 hours on bike has seen it sorted. Will post pics when I can. Posting via blackberry, top units I tells ya! So, I have told bert no more scares or I will bloody finish him myself. Pics and video will be posted for you to see when I can. Down to. Orange france for bmw repairs. Just cosmetic, but lights point to sky, man, still sinking in. Will keep you posted. Paul, IF u can please reset my password and email me. Bushboy, bert says hi to all. Cartwheels on 650 fully loaded can be done , not just for those supercross guys. Not reccomended though.

Cheers all bushboy. And bert
