......was the sound my collar bone made last wednesday. Seems for all its greatness, the vtr still doesn't handle well on ice :P Luckily my bike received less damage than i did. I guess that's what you get when you love your bike so much, you ride it when you should be in your car!

Can't wait to get back out there!

Cheers

Ditto what Stormtrooper and Loopy said. Those things can really hurt!

I wasn't doing a wheelie.... just going to work and coming around a turn at about 30mph (roads were wet). There was a section of ice I could'nt see. It just looked like wet road. Unavoidable really. Hey, it's just part of motorcycling. I've been riding for 20 years and these things just happen sometimes.

Could have been worse you could have crashed at the start of summer instead of the start of winter. Keep your chin up
Get well soon
Phil.
