    Had my 1st motorbike accident today

    Today I broke my golden rule of not going out on two wheels when its raining, and, perhaps deservedly, reaped the reward. I was on my way to Carnaby Street for the a rideout to Buckingham Palace and on to some Mod Music gig in the east end. I got all of a mile or so up the road, when I lost...

    Had a bit of an accident :(

    This happened on the way home from picking up the car from the bodyshop this morning after having the roof spoiler painted and fitted. Taken the paint off and caused a dent right where the crease in the door is. :doh: :doh: Only had the car since December, so annoyed with myself. :( :wallbash:

    Passed first time, with or without accident.

    As a follow up to the previous poll and reflecting on yet another poll about passing first time I thought I'd combine the two. Sorry for hijack. No comments just vote. Second or greater is implied.
