Inithra Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Yesterdays NOTD is a double award, to the pricks in the red hatchback, the driver decided to overtake me at about 80 in a 40 zone, then his passenger flicked a cigarette butt out the window as they went past. Saw the sparks as it bounced and hit my windshield. Had my visor up as I had just been stopped at a red light, so lucky it didn't go in my face instead!

So sorry to hear that, and hope your knee is ok - hassle them for the soonest appointment if they mention a waiting list - you were involved in a nasty bike accident, you should be seen asap.Keep smiling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al_stu Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 You lot. Yes you. Southerners in posh cages. Derbyshire to Kent and back today. You tail gate, you swerve dangerously into tiny spaces with no indicators crossing 2 or 3 lanes at once at speeds well above the traffic around you. You never let me out. And there's so many of you I spent 2 hrs stuck on the m25 For no apparent reason. Arrrgh. So many nobs I can't remember them all.At least the bikers were friendly though, always waved when I moved over for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RantMachine Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Update on my NOTD, the bike was inspected today and the chap said he's going to recommend that it be written off against its full retail value, seeing as it's so well looked after High praise for a two year old Chinese bike with a good few thousand miles on the clock! Oh, an my knee seems to be gradually disintegrating as I refuse to take time off work and the doctor refuses to give me crutches to take some strain off it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebendyfox Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Oh, an my knee seems to be gradually disintegrating as I refuse to take time off work and the doctor refuses to give me crutches to take some strain off it Don't take this the wrong way, but stop being a bloody martyr.From someone who has had 1 knee rebuilt (rugby ) and a fair few knocks on the other - Knee injuries are a bitch, and they have a habit of coming back to bite you in later years. Take some time off work, see a physio and rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inithra Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Yep, definitely take some time off. Even if you have to use your holiday allowance so you still get paid. My left knee had been giving me loads of problems (weak tendons, also after a Rugby injury, kept giving out, or locking up, leaving me limping for days after), but I had 6 weeks off work because I broke one wrist and fingers in both hands, and the knee has healed too!

TIPC Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 The people at zenith, Every time I call them I have to explain who I am they then start accusing me of being the cause of the crash & riding without a licence! Right shambles they are how many times do you want me to go over it. Never mind that the police charged the car driver with 3 different offences (no idea when as the hospital wouldn't allow them to see me until Sunday!) Here's hoping when I'm good enough to ride again RAC will have changed who their underwriters are bunch of expletives the workers that I had to deal with anyway..

Guest Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Blue line is me, red line is the nob in the VW trying to knock me off. Was I positioned wrong? Should I slip to the left more in future? He tried to come round the outside of me, this is after being right up my arse before even joining the roundabout. Tend to get a lot of cars that always stick out from the left before the turning I came off on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RantMachine Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I don't speak any Welsh, but I have a translator at my disposal for my current project.And they get to be my NOTD because there are clearly SO MANY people in this world who are fluent in Welsh but don't understand a word of English, thereby necessitating the creation of a Welsh language version of every piece of work I've created in the past year.
