Oh yes. 1982, on some Suzuki trailie 125 thing. I was learning to ride with a County Council sponsored initiative, great set-up. Anyway, on a bike-school road-trip, I locked the back wheel under braking and was thrown off the bike. The weird thing was, the first I knew of it, I was sitting by the side of the road, rolling a cigarette, and wondering to myself, "Why have we stopped? Did someone come off?". My fellow pupils and the trainers then came back for me and explained what had happened to me. I really had knocked myself senseless. Bike was a write-off. |
