I haven't ridden a bike to work since January 1988. On the 30 years ago thread I said I've had 2 big accidents in my time photo's of the first one are on that thread. The second one happened one Saturday morning when I was working down the coast operating a backhoe on the Bond Uni site. I stopped at a red light on the Nerang - BroadBeach rd, the sun was just coming over the horizon it was right in the middle of the road. Last thing I remember was stopping at the red light in the right hand lane near the centre island. I put my right foot on the island and woke up in Southport Hospital that afternoon. An 18 year old girl in a HQ Holden didn't see me, the red light, the intersection, took me out said she was doing 80kph. I was unconscious and had no I.D. on me. The cops traced my rego and rang Julie, she was at the hospital for half a day waiting for me to regain consciousness. So I've been over a car twice, once forwards and once backwards. While I was recovering and rebuilding my bike I got out of the earthmoving industry and started driving trucks. No need to start your bike when you drive your work home. Been driving trucks home ever since walk out into the shed past the bike and the 4x4 and get in the truck 5 days a week.

**** brother sorry to hear you got cleaned up , the idot was more than likely texting , hope they checked her phone , wishing you a speedy recovery , much karma your way

Envious of you blokes who get to ride to work regulary, seems like one way of easing that "it's gonna be a beaut day for a ride and I've got to work" feeling. I do ride to work for my first shift but I then spend the next six nights/days on call and have to bring the ambulance home with me, good thing I love my job
