burnham on sea
So i gave myself the afternoon off today and thought ' i will go for a little spin ' .
Riding down a country lane , i came up behind a big lorry , as im up behind him he pulled over a tad to give a car coming the other way some room ...... WALLOP .... a ******* great branch comes from the tree above and lands across my bars , tank etc ..... one piece of it wedges between the small fairing panel and the engine , most of it is across the tank , clocks and it hits my kill switch as well so i come to a juddering stop in the road !!!!
Get home to check the damage etc and all i can say is it must have been my lucky day ( in a way ) as not even as much as a small scratch , nothing ... **** knows how ..
Did wake me up when it hit me !!!!!
