Good to see you still have a sense of homour despite the belting you
got, hope you heal ok without any lingering problems. You've certainly
been in the wars recently with this and the hit you got when you were
camping.

jh

FD - glad you're still breathing dude!!

So exactly how long did you have the new helmet for before it got
trashed in anotheraccident?? This MUST be a record... Will Limar
believe you when you claim your second half-price helmet in a week??

Seriously mate - very pleased you got out of this one... Hope that bike
is back under your @rse again soon...

Sorry to hear of your accident, Dutch. Having had a fall onto a gravel road
recently (not caused by a driver), with massive abrasions, one of which got
infected, I can honestly say look after your injuries and don't
underestimate them.

Hope you're better soon - on ya bike in a couple of days?

actually, i was wearing my 'old' one that my daughter now wears (bi
hair needs a big helmet). it came out fine, apart from a few scratche
and lot of car-coloured-paint on it. I think however the old @#$% ca
pay for the Limar105 replacement instead. I hadnt got around to sendin
it off to Syd for exchange yet and would have had to fork out $115 to d
so, so Mr Conformadore can pay it instead

On the bike front, the initial inspections by non-cycliists was WAY of
the mark!

The bars are totally rooted, bent in on the rightside.
Both ergo's look cactus too. levers fractured and covers shredded.
Headset is very loose. Im expecting there to be a big ding/indent i
the race/s if opened up.
There's something dodgy with the fork too. Its a Kinesis carbon w/Al
steerer (1"). There seems to be a bend/fracture at the top of th
fork.
Front wheel seems OK(ish) but only after a quick glance.
Handlebar tape obviously shredded as is saddle (this is a combo o
race-spill and yesterday's effort but he dont know that )
I suspect there also be a small crimp in the frame under the downtube
approaching the headtube. little bit of crumpled paintwork which is
sure sign.

So looks like everybody's cheek about a new bike may not be that fa
off the mark after all. Im a bit excited at that prospect but alot sa
too. Me and that bike been thru alot (gravel, windscreens, rainy RTBs
AlpineClassics, My only win, many BR's, etc).
Cecil Walker shall be giving me a full lowdown soon so my voyeur fu
can begin
