I agree 100% with regards visibility that's why i was wearing all HI VIZ gear and a white helmet lol and he still did not see me. Unfortunately i can not remember anything after the initial impact so i have also invested in a camera for my bike front and back so god forbid it happens again I will have video evidence for the police. Below is pics of what i was wearing how did they not see me

Update................ On October 21st 2020 at 6:20 am I was riding to work it was dark but conditions were ok, when a large flatbed lorry came out of a side road at speed and clipped me which caused me to spin and ended up wrapping myself and the bike round a tree. The lorry did not slow down and did not stop. I was rushed to hospital for scans and miraculously I had no broken bones just a lot of cuts and bruising and soft tissue damage to my shoulder neck and hip on my left side, the side that hit the Tree. My Bike was a total right off and only one witness other than myself but the police have had no luck tracking the driver down. I believe that the only reason I walked away with with minor injuries was the quality of the Leathers and helmet i was wearing the bike was in bits and the frame bent I think I hit the tree around 25-30 Mph so that helped too. Anyway after a couple of months recovery and physio I got my self a New Bike and she is a beauty. Took her out today and did around 30 miles on it I have not stopped grinning since. (Also new helmet and leathers because i had to replace the damaged ones) New Bike My Previous Bike that at the time of accident was only a month old still new really

You are right and I agree 100% I should have bought it earlier but with the lock down due to covid I could not buy it and could not book a CBT. The first CBT available was this Monday just gone so I took the course then bought the Bike brand new at a great price with 2 years warranty and 2 years breakdown. But I have also purchased fully armoured Jacket, trousers, boots and gloves and it will be only used when weather permits for the commute to work.

Bought myself a new toy. It is only 125cc but I have not rode a bike in over 35 years ??. I needed new transport for work and decided this was the way to go ????

Nothing wrong with kids getting a few bumps and scrapes it is how they learn ?. My 4 boys (now grown men) have had bumps scrapes and a couple of broken bones over the years. My response was always did you learn from it ? and did it kill you ? .... No well then pick your self up and dust yourself down you will be fine. ?? Obviously a little more concern was shown with the broken bones ?? but the principle is they learn to understand that shit happens and if you sit and cry about it .. it still hurts the same and brings you down. but if you get up and carry on although sore you will soon forget about it and get back to having fun ..

Well I should be back on later today if all the parts arrive. But on a side note I tried to get some practice in with the wife and kids, only to get wiped out by the Daughter and missus ???

I am out of action until I rebuild my pc ?. Had a new fuse board fitted and and we had a big power surge due to a faulty breaker. PC fried TV fried and the modem plus a couple of other gadgets. A replacement breaker is fitted. Replaced the TV today just waiting for a new motherboard and power supply which should arrive tomorrow then I hope the hard drives are all ok and not damaged. But I will be back ??
