The next few moments were a bit confusing as:

a) I didn't know where the bike was.
b) It felt like I was upside down.
c) It was dark.

When I sat up, shook the moss out me lid, I saw the bike sunk upto the mudguard and my 'ex-mate' laughing his nuts off like he'd just seen someone fly ten foot through the air and bury tha sel heed fist.

I did learn a valuable off roading lesson......
























If someone with a big grin sez "You go first" immediately punch them in the face, twice.
