Last night I get a call from Madal at about 8 pm. " Jimmy I need your hel, please bring your trailer, Andre has crashed into a car"

I rush home get the trailer ready and wait for Al. We hitch the trailer and rush off to the accident scene.

When we get there we find a very Foooked up Triumph Daytona. Andre is looking a little rattled.

We find that he was just pulling away in his lane still in first gear when some lady in her cage reverses out of the parking lot on the opposite side of the road at a stink spoed into his lane. He brakes hard and tries to swerve but front wheel slips on a wet manhole cover and he slams into the side of the cage resulting in him flying a good distance through the air and luckily missing the car with his body.

I suspect that the Triumph is going to be written off!! Sorry mate!
Andre has a very eina leg but nothing broken. His riding jacket is vlenters but not a mark on him and there is also an impressive gash out of his boots and the foot and anckle are unscathed.

Once again this highlight the importance of ATGATT.

Chaps they do not see us.....expect the worse and this may be avoided
