Grrr Ouch!!

Got knocked off my Africa twin last thurs. The bike's possibly the strongest on the road (or off, for a big trailie), damage to my bike 300 squid, the insurance company are considering writing off his (bless im, jus pass is tess) poxy likkle ford God knows wotnot.
I came off remarkably well considering, a bruised foot. Bless those heavily padded winter leathers, however HUGE shout of confidence and gratitiude to the makers of ALPINE STARS motorcross boots which basically saved my left foot from multiple breakage and agonising pain. 50mph through the bumper, grill, headlight and left wing of any car whilst still having a foot that can sing praises such as these deserves ultimate recognition. Suggest good footwear when you ride peeps. Wishing you many safe road and air journeys for the future.
