| My first bike Yahama RS100 back in 1978, I'd only had the bike two weeks and was travelling from Manchester along the A6 outside the McVitties biscuit factory on an icy morning, coming upto the lights with one car in front of me, they changed to amber, I thought the car would go for it but he didn't, I grabbed a fist full of front brake down we both went, the bike ended up under the back of the car whilst I was on my back with my legs against the bumper and feet in the air.
No real damage done but it was one of those learning experiences |
