My white TRX is no more

Post by youngy » Thu May 08, 2008 7:44 pm

I just got back from A&E.

A dozy bitch in a car rear ended me not 400m from home. "Oh I missed the brake and hit the accelerator". Mmmmmm nice.

The police siren woke me up somewhere back up the road.

From what I saw there was debris everwhere. My crash helmet has a nice dent in the back. Hospital say no broken bones, but I hurt bad. My back is very painful, my arse is bruised, left ankle swollen and I broke a tooth - no wonder my jaw hurts.

I've yet to see the bike, but I don't expect it to be pretty.

but at least I get a week off work.

:( Glad you're ok - if a bit bruised. I suppose it's good you've got a spare TRX hanging around then :?

Sh!t mate ... the bike can be fixed, but you're in one piece which is the most important thing... the upside is that you could buy PhatSo's old bike and build yet another masterpiece!

Glad you're ok(ish) anyway

Cheers guys. Thanks for the support.

I'll be phoning your mates first thing Dave. See if I can get the other drivers details and find out where the bike is. Want to take a look at it, see if it's salvageable or just worth buying back for bits.

Mate, I'm sorry to hear about your accident. That was a mighty fine bike. Mend soon, and screw the bitch! (financially-speaking!!)
