I pulled onto a gravel & stone carpark today and as I turned the bike I hit a rut in the ground which caused the bars to be swung to the right and at the same time the bike stopped dead. I was thrown off the seat and the best I could do was to lay the bike down as slowly as my strength would allow.
Four car-drivers simply watched me thru their mirrors struggling to pick the bike up. It was virtually impossible, especially considering my right arm had been strained trying to stop the bike going over in the first place. Luckily, a passing biker had seen me go down and came to assist me. Together, we managed to sit the bike back up and to my great relief, there wasn't a single scratch on the bike!
£90 spent on crash-bungs was certainly money well spent :yahoo:
