It looks like you got your money's worth out of it!My GT AIR, great helmet.
Nothing quite like sliding down the tarmac on the back of your head. :smile_big: Been there.My GT AIR, great helmet.
Hope that it's an old trophy!My GT AIR, great helmet.
Oh wow! Bad enough but could have been a lot worse. A recent event or historical?I must not chase Hyabusa's over MT Messenger whilst running in my bike............Broken wrist Broken ankle, safe mellon (head) helmet did the trick.
A week before me and the wife were to fly out to Philip Island Moto GP 2016 Geoff, still went but a lot of the things to do with my son were cancelled:sad: But i got to hobble around PI and still had a great time. Dumb lesson learnt, pushing an unfamiliar bike hard up hill on a corner that had a sunken dip in the road, suspension loaded up then unloaded causing the tire to let go at around 120kph, rear came around , and down i went sliding on my back up the centre of the road following the bike. :crying:Oh wow!

Crikey! I'm reluctant to say that you were lucky but considering the circumstances, I think it's a fair statement! I haven't been over Mt Messenger for about 5 years but I do remember a pretty uneven surface approaching the summit on the southern side, Bet your wife was wasn't best pleased :grin: .A week before me and the wife were to fly out to Philip Island Moto GP 2016 Geoff, still went but a lot of the things to do with my son were cancelled:sad: But i got to hobble around PI and still had a great time.
