Ah don't drink your problems away, Crash. Drink to remember, not to forget. Sorry to hear about what happened to you. I know people are going to tell you to keep riding, but if you feel like you should quit and step away from riding, then I say do it. You gotta do what's best for you. Anyways, we're all glad you made out of the accident alive. You must have slid for a while...geez 70mph lowside. Thank goodness for gear eh?

ORIGINAL: CBRclassic

Everyone else has said sorry ...but not me mate

geezus!! ...I think deep down from your text , you know you were being a dick , if not just for s few seconds...
We all , including myself make poor judgment calls at times... [:-]
I think the fact that you know you were at fault is a bloody good sign ...

Mate ..your pissed now and feeling like **** ...but that will pass.. , take it from someone with 350,000+ klm road rider experience behind him..... Yu get over it and if you like ridding you will be back...

Take your time, learn from your errors and I guarantee you will not make that particular error again ...

good luck

Thank you Classic!!... that hit deep. FFcbr thank you for the reassurement. All in all it was probably a 200+foot slide. MaybeI can get pictures but trying not to think about it. My brand new agv gloves got fuc**d up. down to the threads(But hey thats why i wear them right?) the bar treated me well. I want to remember this but just don't want to think about it. I had everything setup perfectly. 2 trackdays setup in just twoweeks were I could let the rr stretch its legs. I agree I'm young in the 2 wheel world and all this is a learning experience...but I don't want my learning experience at the cost of other riders it just makes me soooo sick that i hit another rider from the rear.

Accidents happen. Anyone in your place might have done the same thing.

Wow, sorry to hear it...I really am. Good luck getting it fixed, just give it time. Oh and I just spent a lot of time watching that sig ^ Haha.

But seriously, in due time I'm sure you'll feel better about it. Be happy you were smart enough to wear gear. Was your buddy cool with it?
