Moderator drewpy Posted April 21, 2014 Moderator Posted April 21, 2014 Coming down Worsley road on the Gilera and a Citroen pulls over to the left and slows right down, I go round him and at the same time he decides there's a parking space opposite the road and takes me out. Bent the forks, scratched me lovely frame,smashed headlamp etc. luckily I was only doing about 20mph he got away with 2 rubber marks and a busted mirror. I got a broken middle finger when the clutch lever hit the car. At least I got a witness who said it was his fault. me lovely bike
welshwan Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 awww fucking hell mate! Feel for you dude! such a lovely example of that bike, it was mint wasn't it?! There are some idiots about and it seems they ALL come out on the bankholidays. At least you're not in hospital
