oh the fog

[contail]

cor! how foggy is it today. couldnt do more than 20 mph. took me an hour 45 minutes to do 25 mile. dark frozen country lanes. i had to stop and have a fag and take it all in. my trusty bike just huming away at the side of the road. snot frozen to my face and numbe fingers, what a fealing of life. cars flying past desperate to get work quickly. me, well i just took my time and enjoyed the journey.. that is untill i decided to follow a set of fog lights on an old landrover. he was on the wrong side of the road. i only found out when i moved over to the right a bit to see if there was any thing in front of him and felt the dirt. i was realy disorientated. so i backed right off and basicly crawled the rest of the way to work.
still, it was a good memrable journey. i doubt i would have had that if i had used the car. :cool:
en it great being a biker.

sorry to here it. did she stop
Yes she did must admit wasnt very polite to her .She tried to make out I was going too fast but a bloke in car following behind corrected her on that fact. But as we didnt actually connect and I'm alright plod dont want to know so looks like I'm gonna be claiming on my Insurance :(

to Shrewsbury Yesturday afternoon in think fog, then then went off towards birmingham/star city near Spag junction at teatime to pick up something, before heading back towards sheffield via the A38, twas a bloody peasouper from Brum thru Derby, at one point I thought about quiting the journey for safety as the visibility was less that the stopping distance even though I as only averaging 50mph there was peeps bombing past me

well she wants to be gratefull you was only inpolite. you could of been in a truck and she could be listening to a drs bed side manner.
ide claim of her if you can. she might open her eyes next time. :mad:

[hardtailbiker]

you will be able to claim off her. Hopefully you took details from her and your witness, then all will be hunky dory or if you didn't you're better off paying for the damage yourself rather than making a claim
