Things not to do #194

This is The Baboon, which was a Harry Spankers '99 (RRX) FireBlade.

I low-sided it on a nasty off-camber corner at low speed, sliding into the verge, which caused the bike to catapult me into a road sign and then a Hawthorn bush, causing a dislocated knee and a nice collection of haematomas on my right leg and shoulder. To add insult to injury, the bike then rolled on its right side through 360 degrees and hit me in the ribs.

Thanks to Northants Police, Northants Ambulance Service and Kettering General Hospital.

Oh, and the guy who helped me up and offered me a spliff.
