It took me over 12 months before I could let go of the empty shell that was my old bike. I still miss it, but it was costing me a fortune to keep it on the road. Now I have 3 new bikes that cost me 3 fortunes to keep maintained

2 great pubs now... and not to mention a great beach 300 mtrs from my front door.

When the bunnies won I was probably drowned in pooey nappies or pretending to be a Wiggle on Safari in my backyard somewhere.

yes, very nasty. When I first started riding I nearly came a cropper in SF on a wet tram track, did a nice front wheel slide until my tyre (MTB knobby) gripped the raised edge of the road and I escaped injury.

Worst crash a few years later in NJ in winter on a FG, black ice, down hard, very sore arse !!! And no, that's not code for the happenings of a private meeting in a public toilet near Saccy's Bathurst MTB track.

Most boring round of football this year.

Farken Hird is the best player I've ever seen though IMO. Watched some of the game - damn he is good. Better than Carey, better than Ablett (too inconsistant), better than Buckley (I'm a pies supporter), better than Voss.

I know what you mean about coming down hard. The knee might be the only vissible injury, but thats just because the bruising hasn't come out on the shoulder or ass yet. Feels like a dead arm, only it wont go away!
