After a very good blast I was just setting up to put the bike on the rear paddock stand. My normal procedure is place the side stand on a bit of wood to bring it to a better more level attitude. Bent down to position stand under swing arm and........boom....... freak gust of wind and over she goes lands on the euro chic love egg (Citroen C1).
Damage.
1. Wing fooked on the 57 plate love egg
2. Fairing cracked
3. DB screen cracked
4. alu frame for fairing bent

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrssssssssssssssssssssstttttttttttttuuuuuuuuuuuuuuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrdddddddddd :evil:

Bike bodged for tommorrows ride out but the car will take more than a good bodging.
