Day of the dead

Post by Ninjachica »

Check out Day of the Dead rideout 1/11/22 on Relive! https://www.relive.cc/view/vevYJJpoZyO

What a day!
Vast majority was riding tiny mountain roads. I nearly got spat off at one point. Poor 23 year old suspension, not a match to these new BMWs.

Went to the top of a mountain. I was 2nd bike. Last 2 didn't come around a very tight corner. I waited, but nope. Parked up and ran back down, just as lead bike came back.
Ed had missed a gear on a tight hairpin, dropped it on the inside, he rolled down the hill while the bike was rubber side up. It was upright when i got there, but he was really peed off. Bumps and bruises everywhere. Lost a tooth.
Finally got it started again, and made it to the top. It was hazy, so he was totally peed off!

Back fown, snd lunch at a nice cafe. Bob, the one just off the motorway by Ibi.
Ride through Bob's neck of the woods, then a coffee at Planes.
Home to have a proper look at the damage to human and bike (which is where i heard about the tumble down the hill)

Due out again on Saturday!

He is aching, but nothing broken. Yet another scratch on the pannier. Surprised it hasnt worn through 😁

Weather is currently glorious, so I'm naking the most of it.

Hope Ed is okay ,
Due to the time it took me to see this post and react he's probably made a full recovery and forgot it happened . :-|
It wasn't my fault , I was left unsupervised !
