Ah well no harm done Bad Billy, a lesson learnt the hard way, off the brakes and drop the shoulder. Your not the first or last to fall off at Donnington. Two mates having a dice earlier this year. Front CBR 1000 chased by a GSXR 750 and about four laps in.
The guy riding the GSXR (camera bike) came off there about 10 years ago. Funny enough he was on another GSXR 750 then and when the pegs run out of tarmac they heavily dug into the grass. Scrape Boom Bang Wow Ooh There weren't much left intact but fortunately other than a few carpet burns he got away with it. We inspected it once home in the garage and after about 10 seconds it was declared scrap and subsequently sold for bits. Then there was the R1, the ZX6, GSXR 1000, Honda C90 (with me on the back ) etc. think you get the idea but they're another story
Bad Billy. Bad Luck Mate and greatfull you are not to hurt other than pride. The bike can be repaired you are the important bit. Regards Mate Joe.
I suggest writing the words ‘oh fuck’ or ‘call an ambulance’ on the underside of ur bike... would make for a good photo and put people in the right frame of mind. Glad to hear ur ok.
I posted one like that in the "This made me laugh" thread the other day Bill, I sent it to my neighbour, whose daughter races, and he said he'd seen a similar thing at a race meeting where some joker had taped a huge black dildo under the seat unit of a race bike
I seem to remember you saying Dave had hit the kitty litter at the beginning of his racing career, bite back Bill and remind him of that , either that or hide the Hob Nobs
Bolox to that I’m always trying to remount unless the headstocks ripped off, which ahem did happen at Donnington RIP 250 Elsie
Its like a low budget TT race - but rather good... Or it could simply be the Deliveroo training programme. I had one of the L-plated twats cut me up today on the inside as I was filtering - narrowly missed nicking his pizza.
