Gentlemen not something i wanted to have to say but the up coming NI storm meet im afraid to say i wont be at...
Earlier today i went a blip on the Aprilia and to put it mildly i smashed it to bits
the thinga bent in half or at least i think it is as they carted me away
.. waiting to see how bad my right ankle is and i seem to have left a fair bit of skin on the road..im sore
last i remember was touching the front brake and i face planted .
to be continued when iv not so many drugs in me.

Oh sh1t Rob, that’s not the news anybody wants to hear…
Better it’s the bike that’s smashed in two than the rider, but being carted off in an ambulance doesn’t sound like you got away too lightly…
If it’s as wet as the forecast prediction, we might come visit you in hospital rather than ride on Saturday. What hospital are they detaining you in?

Bad luck fella. Hopefully the bike won't be as bad as you fear. Enjoy the drugs.
