Very sorry to hear of the crash, happy to know you had a good helmet and no broken bones. How did it happen. Maybe you can give us some more details so that we can all learn from the experience. Moms worry and rightly so, about their kids all the time. i hide stuff from mine all the time, but she deserves more credit for being open minded about my follies. Non-bikers don't understand the drive behind us nuts who get back on two wheels the first chance we get. Good luck and again, good to hear that you came out pretty unscathed.
Sorry to hear about your accident. We all have one sooner or late. I had a big one this year, also cracked me helm. The biggest problem I have found after the accident (apart from the pain ) is psychological. Getting back on a bike as soon as possible is the only cure.
The next Duc should be a red one though.....there better in the rain Everyone knows you can easily "tie a yellow Duc around an old oak tree"
After over twenty years with two wheels as my only transport, I have decided to ride just for the pleasure of it now. I used to ride in rain, sleat, snow, ice - the lot and binned my bikes at least once a year due to the conditions. I no longer ride in poor conditions as it gives me no pleasure. Thats why cars were invented. Just my personal oppinion.
Glad it hasn't damaged your enthusiasm. Feel better soon.
Glad you are ok, don`t let it put you off. Get your car fixed and use that in the rain. Hope to see you soon. pop up to boxhill on the 4th sunday, if you have your car back
