TC Posted September 6, 2008 Author Posted September 6, 2008 Just got back Met psycho first thing did Long hill and up to the Cat Weather was good Roads were flooded in parts.Then shot off to Matlock Pee'd it down on the way and then zig zaged my way home, bikes a mess but you've got to grab what days you can.FC and Debs sorry to hear you had to turn back but no point in riding if its not safe.Good effort for giving it a go.All in all a great day out

kate1 Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 I'm fine thanks, i only clipped a guys wing mirror but to be fair he was parked on double yellows and was blocking a whole lane. The thing was i'd been using the bike for 2 weeks and i forgot how wide my car was .I promised to replace the mirror by the next day so i found a nice new cheap one near warrington, i got there and the road was flooded. The bf has just had his car lowered so he wouldn't drive through it so off i waded. I delivered the mirror and the wife said thanks. On sunday a note came through the door basically opologising for being parked on double yellows and the mirror was with it. I can 'take it back and get my money back, didn't realise you were a student and probably skint and good luck wth the studies'Needless to say i'm not taking it back.
TC Posted September 8, 2008 Author Posted September 8, 2008 i'd been using the bike for 2 weeks and i forgot how wide my car was . We've all done that... I went to filter once and then realised i was in a Mondeo Hopefully we will get this up and running again soon ish
