Apologies to those whose packages i was supposed to send out today, unfortunately i rather spectacularly came off of my motorbike and ended up in a ditch earlier- ith the bike on my ankle. If i wasn't so *ahem* big boned *ahem* then i might have broken something, luckily enough it was just some very bad ( and painful!) bruising and sweeling.

hope to get them all sent out as soon as i can bear weight on it.

thanks for all of the kind comments.
There's an angry looking bruise on my ankle joint, but no lasting damage. I did it by managing to go too fast around a corenr , only 2 hours after riding outof the bloody showroom! straigh over the edge of the road into a ditch full of mud and sea water. Lucky really as the mud broke my fall.


front forks are bent, front wheel probbably buckled, indicators broken off, scratched and chipped paintwork. and very very muddy.

will upload some before and after pics later.

Sorry to hear that Nat. It's always sad when a good machine gets damaged :)

I was told that a lot of accidents happen riding home with a new bike - last time I picked one up I rode it home as though I was made of glass!!

2 hours after leaving the showroom! Bummer.

Anyway it's good that you aren't too badly damaged. Any chance of your insurance helping out with the repairs?
