    Saw this scrambler as I came out of work this morning. Someone said it had been there for weeks, slow road with speed bumps so hate to think what happened. image.jpeg

    That does not look good. Hope the rider is OK?

    Let's hope the owner / rider is ok. If it was stolen - hope the purp hurts.

    Like I said - let's hope the purp hurts and his baubles drop off.

    update on this, The bike is still on the pavement!! According to the security guy in the building opposite where the bike is, the owner went away for a few days, the sons got peed up and decided to take the bike out, they started the bike with a screwdriver or similar, hence the ignition, shot off without taking the steering lock off and went straight (well, obviously not straight) into a bollard! there you have it, believe it or not! don't know about injuries caused by the accident but can imagine the ones caused by the dad

    I"m surprised the owner hasn't recovered the bike to a safe place rather than leaving it at the side of the road.
