Hi All..

Had an intimate moment with a Yamaha R6 (2 weeks old) on Monday afternoon.. as it bounced off the front of the Peugeot.. we’re all fine, but the rider went to hospital by ambulance… with a broken arm, etc.. 205 could possibly be a write – off…?!?!? But don’t know yet..

The police said it was blatantly his fault! He was overtaking on a blind bend and didn’t move back in…I moved over as he headed towards me, but the hedge was getting very close, and then bang… he fell onto the tank and had a bit of a tank slapper. He then left the bike, when joining the grass, they both proceeded to cartwheel along the verge.. and for the first time ever, I was only doing about 40mph..(60 limit B road, as used on the Clang – N – Ball occasionally)

Don’t think it won’t happen to you…. Because it will…!

James

James,
sorry to hear this. Glad you're ok though. If the biker was being a bit silly then maybe it serves him right. shame about the pug though.

Bugger the rider!! [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] (only joking - he's alive) - he's killed my poor old Pug - the ba$tard!!!

You and your brother aren't destined to drive Peugeots - they are jinxed - how many is that you've lost now
