    I'm gonna go with Reddit on this and be skeptical that all this damage was caused by one slide, it looks too clean. I could be wrong.

    Ode To The Motorist

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    Sorry but I don't believe that for one minute !! Its far far too clean. That was done with a belt sander and I'll bet this weeks wages on it.

    My Nitro helmet worked perfectly in a very serious accident involving my head hitting a gate pillar. People who sneer at cheap helmet don't really know what they are talking about, now perhaps it's best I can't recall that annoying say 'a five pound helmet.....' piece of rubbish. A well fitted helmet that meets regulations is good enough. Riding with awareness is the best safety device of all.

    Never mind the cleanness of it. The angle of the skid is crazy. Lol.

    Ditto. The visor on my €450 Shark split unexpectedly (I'm on my 3rd or 4th with leisure use only). I had to use my spare Nitro and sure enough, came head to metal with a loose sprayer on a tractor. Everything came off the helmet but it did it's job surprisingly well.

    I don't buy the story above though.

    Im inclined to think fake but the darker part of me can see how something like that could happen. Is the owner still among the living?

    There's been no real updates from the person who posted it. So I'm not sure what is going on.
