That first picture is at Leeds Ducati, swapping my old GSX-R for a lovely shiny new Hypermotard....30 miles or so later I was lying in a field!! Wasn't quite the welcome to Ducati I was expecting - I'm hoping the second ride will be a happier one
Thanks @isaachunt - l had just collected the bonny 'motard and was revelling in the engine feel and noise and also the handling, I was rounding a relatively tight right hander when a gust of wind (it was last thursday when the weather was shit) caught me and ran me wide, ended up through a fence and in a field on my head.... Hurt like a proper barsteward but still got back on and rode the 250 or so miles home
