Nice sunny winter's morn. Dry roads, that I would have been enjoying on my
bike had SWMBO not needed a lift.

Huge patch of ice hidden round corner.

Car goes straight on, while road curves to left.

Verge surfing ensues.

Damage can be seen on ebay. The real damage is that the front crossmember
is bent, so another one bites the dust

Ah well, we walked away, which is cool.

SWMBO saved the day (or your bones) then?

Certainly is! But, are you going to replace it or ease up on your vast
Alfa collection for a while?

Had I hit it on the bike, I very much doubt I would be posting this. OTOH I
had no specific plan / need to be out riding at that time in the morning,
so it's unlikley I would have been. If I *had* been riding, for whatever
reason, however.

Well, you get the idea......

Did you read the entire .sig?
Not our record, but close.

Well, to be honest, I get a bit confused after the 'Mishap
Investigation Board #14' bit as the rest seems to be gobbledygook
which I'd previously put down to your infamous (if not legendary)
typing skills or being a Mason!! ;-))

LOL

Men In Black #14 (It's a lifestyle thing)
Shaky Knowledge of Geography Award #6 (For nearly going to Warsaw, as
opposed to Walsall)
Talks Endlessly About Religion #4 (Self explnantory, really)
Bikers Of The A414 #38 (Biker meet that rides round here, normally
incorporating the A414)
Apostle #21 (Special award for UKRMers that have vehicles in road legal
condition with total wheels >12)
Cult Of The ****e Old Car #3 (SteveH runs that one and may well explain the
membership criteria)

All of those come form the UKRM biker group. It's a tradition, or old
charter or something.

Then we have the cars
Giulietta,
Sprint
75 (until the ebay auction ends)
and the 155 (Cheers SteveH)

Then the bike

And not won spelling miss take, just don't start on the gran'ma ;)

Ah ha..it all makes more sense and surely suggests a need for
therapy?! Anyway, isn't a 155 a bit up to date for you - I mean you
might even be thinking of a 156 next...now they're *out of print* so
to speak! ;-)
