Tony, I thought long and hard about giving up road riding in 2001-got hit from behind by a drunk gypo in a pickup and sent down the road. Luckily no damage to me and only about £1600 worth to the ST-which my insurance had to pay for as the gypo did a runner and was never traced-even though we had his number plate-not just the number the dam plate as well!
It shook me right up and I considered giving up road riding, but I couldn't do it, I just enjoy riding my bike and particularly going on long trips abroad-luckily Jo enjoys that too so I'm still doing it. I also love riding the track but that is a completely different type of riding-luckily I can do both.
