Re: How many times have you come off your Bike/Scoot?
I came off my Post Office Bantam delivering a Telegram money order to a Gypsy site. Travelling up the dirt road my front wheel dropped into the deepest gully. Straight over the Handlebars as the bike stood straight up on the front wheel. Nothing broken but God it hurt. Second time - same Bike riding through Pontefract a old Chap walked straight out between two cars and caught the handlebars - straight off! I ended up sitting on a chair which someone brought out for me drinking a cuppa. Mechanics turned up - took bike away leaving me in full Bikers Gear sitting on the Pavement drinking tea out of a China cup waiting for the Police to arrive. Very surreal. I got a bill for the Ambulance!
