OUCH!
bezzabsa:
Well today started quietly enough - until 1:20 pm!
loaded with 1 bin for Morgan Motors, when i am on the A449 near Kidderminster - slowing down to allow a car to turn left when I look in my mirror to see a Ducati cartwheeling down the side of me after hitting the rear of the merc pick up i was in.
Several expletives later I get out to find the rider lying in the road graoning, (luckily he was shaken up but not seriously hurt).
Somehow he had missed the fact that i was braking and hit the o/s rear of the pickup full on - left his visor and 1 glove on the pickup bed - and left a red streak along the bed and the road from his helmet!
will post pix when i get em off my phone.
have managed to smack my knee off the dash and twisted my shoulder with the seatbelt.....Could have been a lot worse - if i'd been in my lorry he wouldnt have made it as mine is about 2 feet higher..nasty thought!
smo:
Sounds like he was a very lucky chap not to kill himself!

Whoa!
Glad to hear you and the Biker are ok (if not a little shaken up)
:shock:

apart from wondering "what if..." as i'm a Biker myself.. was shaking like a leaf when i took those pix..luckily 1st person on scene was a Doctor- so he looked after the guy until police and ambulance turned up.
Pain didnt hit me until about 1hour later
