can't believe I'm joining yet another online community on the innterbloodyweb!....... but can't resist seeing what you guys are up to

You won't be seeing me out and about for a while yet, I'm still hobbling around on crutches after a bike crash over 17 months ago!!

Things are looking up a bit now so hopefully back out on the road again before too much longer!

Couple of pics..... edit unable to post photos!: "In order to try to prevent spammers, we do not allow our users to post URLs in any form until they have posted at least 10 legitimate posts and have been with us for more than 7 days. We appreciate your understanding in this matter in order to help us eliminate spam from this forum. If you have somehow gotten this message even though you meet both of the criteria, please let us know ASAP. Thanks!"...that's a pain!!!

Current bike (sat gathering dust!) is an R1200GS, my daily 'commute'/runaround, an MZ Mastff 660, came off worse than me in the crash and had to be put down

'Retired' from the more sports orientated scene, an SV1000, a couple of years back with the intention of doing some decent touring abroad....had plenty of time to plan some trips now!

I see some things never change whatever the biking forum.......come to post here and notice most newbie intro posts getting around 10/20 replies.............until a girly (lady/female:-) posts "NEW GIRL ON THE LOCK" and she gets 57 replies (what's the saying about bees and honey LOL)

Cheers for now.........hey, take a look round my website (link below) and let me know what you think. I'm working on a big section...."Ride Safe, STAY SAFE"........surprise!!!!!!!

..........if only I could but I cut it off to spite my face a long time back LOL

That was a test post by Speedy on my behalf after he reset my account as I've been a victim of the forum's belt and braces anti spammer systems and/or buggered up system settings that wouldn't let me post

........lets see if this post is accepted!

I've done my probation time and not had my account deleted as a spammer

.........so here's the photos I tried to add in my earlier post:

First Xrays in hospital few hours after the crash - open fractures, tibia 'exploded' through the front of my leg. My foot was badly crushed as well....thank God I was wearing decent gear!!!!

...a month in hospital and I came out with the MK1 Taylor Spatial Frame....metalwork in, through and around my leg!!!

More photos, a kinda pictorial history of my injury and recovery, in the Gallery section on my website.

RIDE SAFE!!!!!!!!
