So going into work today I saw a yoof on a scooter hit a new pothole and go into quite a spectacular "tank slapper".
Being on the house "ickle bike", the KLR250, I soaked the bumps up after hitting several new potholes, but it would have been very twitchy for Jules on the Speed Triple, and murderous in the wet.
So I have tried a website called FixMyStreet.com and reported the potholes with Derby Council so let's see what happens

Keep it Rubber Side Down
Okay folks, here is the reason why my motorcycle travelling is on hold for a couple of months.
What should have been a short trip home from work on Jules's F650 ended up in a trip to A&E and a lot of pain.
It's still very cold and the potential for black ice and slippy roads, so be careful. Even careful speeds and engine braking can end up in a spill.
Now where can I get to in April....
