One nil to the GS team as the Honda was seen skiting down the tarmac of the B6414 with me spinning wildly beside it. I am written off and the Pan has a broken collar bone. Nah, the other way roon! It's the drugs they have me on!

Bike safely at Dunfermline Motor Cycles and me safely home. Battered but no defeated.

Thanks to all the guys for their help and support. I wouldn't have got myself upright let alone the bike.

If any of you are over Dunfermline way call me and stop by. The house is called Strupag which means friends having a tea and a blether.

The number is 0779 614 1564 (home number edited out by garfield....:thumb)

Sorry to hear about your spill, hope you are back on the road soon.

The Pan is a great bike, I hope it isn't really 'totalled'.

The GS' are great heavy things too :blast

Get well soon.

Bob.

and me behind wondering where both of you were going to end up so that I might steer a course through you as mine wasn't going to stop on that bit of road either, tourances or not :eek: As you were sliding down the road and I tried my brakes I did reconsider my decision to buy crash bars and panniers instead of ABS :rolleyes:

Glad you are on the mend and bike is recovered. As Doyle mentioned, there were many more stretches off road with greasy mud on them. No warning signs though, as in the Road Safety Video "Perfect Day" :augie

Look forward to seeing you on your new GS soon.

Only two :D :D :D

You are but an amateur compared to 'Petcul' . . . I've seen him loose 8 within two miles of the start (me included) :augie


It looks as though the 16 that made it enjoyed themselves so that makes it a considerable success :thumb2
