Last two pics,
As you can see not much left of the bike but, more importantly shrop's was very lucky to come away with a few bruises and cuts. So ladies and gentlemen be very alert out there because you never know when the next old coffin dodger is going to look you straight in the eyes and still pull out on you

***UPDATE***
Had a text from Mark. He has to go to the lacal fracture clinic on Tuesday. Following X-rays he had, its seems he may of fractured his lower leg and wrist,
fingers crossed its just greenstick fractures, though there bad enough.

What a fekker.......
............one of my buddies nearly totalled.
Two bikes, riding offset/staggered, within the speed limit, both with headlights, sunny day, open junction....another BIKE statistic ? My fekking arse.
Just what have you got to do to lose a licence ? Quick blat @ 130 in the middle of nowhere or pull out and try to kill someone on a main road - You be the judge.
It's about time ALL bad driving was punished and roads made safer.
Gotta stop now before I lose my rag totally and say something stupid and we wouldn't want that now, would we ? :}

I've had a couple of "offs" due to cars,nothing as bad as that though,I glad your ok.Seeing the pic's of a blue bird in bits on the road with police etc in the background is a scarey sight for me.seeing the front wheel ripped off it must of been some kind of impact,your a very lucky guy!.
Thank the gods there were independant witnesses (A.) to help you get a quicker claims reponse,B.)To get this phooking twatty old codger off these roads and make this world a safer place).
Hopefully you will be ok for assen!

I thought you liked the Blue xx - ah well. At least you're in reasonable condition, but fancy doing that just before Assen. If you're stuck for a machine, you're more than welcome to borrow mine as long as it's back and in good nick before the Pie N Peas. You know where I am if you need it - get well soon.
