[Rich Gibson @RGP617]

Slightly excited about getting the Blade back from @paulcurrann next week, just in time for circuits reopening, the lighting gantry going out, and the race season starting.

Gutted. Honestly proper gutted. The man was quite simply a national treasure.

RIP

@bjj58 Same with me. My Donny date was carried over from last year when we went into lockdown.

[Rich Gibson @RGP617]

ACU 14th
Donny GP 25th
Mallory 26th
EMRA 1 28th

In walks Boris... “Outdoor sports facilities to re-open from 29th”

I’d say I’m massively pissed off, but that’ll come tomorrow when I’m told that everything’s booked up so I can’t test the bike before my 1st race at Tonfanau.

@JimNotBob @paulbudford It was weird. I can remember going down, sliding into the oncoming lane and thinking fuck I’m done for. Next thing I’m in a ditch minus half my skin and uniform (I was on my way to work) and the bike is in two pieces under the engine block of the Volvo.

[Rich Gibson @RGP617]

@paulbudford @JimNotBob Nah... He knew. Like I say... One of the paramedics slipped flat on her arse as she was running over to me.

[Rich Gibson @RGP617]

@paulbudford @JimNotBob A copper got in the 🚑 suggesting I was lying about my speed even though I had witnesses. Worst was my wife drove past doing the school run but didn’t believe it was me until she saw 10 missed calls on her phone 15 mins later. She thought I was a goner.

[Rich Gibson @RGP617]

@Yorkshirebandit If I only watched from the second she got out of the car, I’d agree. I can’t help but notice though that the biker goes to undertake her before she sees him, shits her pants then moves across into the right hand lane, where said biker already is. #1 is valid. He didn’t #ridesafe

[Rich Gibson @RGP617]

@paulbudford @JimNotBob I came off my ZX9R into oncoming traffic as I exited a roundabout in Winchester back in 2009. Diesel everywhere to the point where even the paramedics struggled to walk on the road without slipping. Police knew it was there but hadn’t put warning signs out. The Volvo 850 won!

@jimbo_h_46 City riding and general touring yeah fair one. Last thing I’d do though is piss of on what I’d consider an adventure and rely solely on my smart phone and the 4G signal it needs to work efficiently.

[Rich Gibson @RGP617]

Contentious perhaps. Some might say ironic. But nevertheless, I tend to think that if you want to connect a mobile phone to your bike dash, especially when it’s an ‘adventure’ bike, you’re kind of missing the point.

Where did the society I grew up in go? The one where folk just got on with their lives and took pleasure in seeing others enjoying theirs, regardless of whether they shared their enthusiasm for what they were doing or not. Worlds serious enough ffs. Put the pitch forks away.

@AnimeNera Different bikes/geezers I reckon. That last bit might not even gen either if I’m honest. Trauma just isn’t that tidy... Ever. Especially when the resulting scene’s as fucked up as that. 🤔
It deffo sends a message though.

[Rich Gibson @RGP617]

@JimNotBob Weapons like this ought to be charged for the oxygen that they steal from the rest of us.

[Rich Gibson @RGP617]

So when do we think club racing seasons will actually start?

April? May? June? Later? Or are you holding onto optimism by your finger nails and still hopeful that it’ll be late March as was always the plan?

[Rich Gibson @RGP617]

1st day in the new job today. Bit of a culture shock, but I think I’m going to enjoy this next chapter... Especially once March arrives and I’m back on the bike on a weekend again.

[Rich Gibson @RGP617]

... days until the start of my first race season... 🤞🏻
