Man o man. I had a nightmare highside onto the lovely fields of Newtown!!

Me and Ani were returning back from the ride, and at one particular place, I had no idea there was a curve to the right. Anyways, tried to corner, but the speed was waay too high. Highsided into the field at 85+ kmph and miraculously came out with just a sprained ankle. My fairings have a few grass marks. No bend in alloys, no bend in haldlebars/steering tee. BTW just one part of the front brake lever is missing and the right mirror is cracked.

About the ride, it was epic. And i still can't get the growl of the Blade off my mind as it overtook all our puny mopeds at one point where Vishal went in for a lil speedcheck. He did something like 240kmph.

Ani has got awesome shots, so waiting for the works....
