Hello there
#1
Hi there,

I'm Loctite aka Arron
I've been riding 12 years both on the track and road.
I was known for being an experienced rider and a good laugh.

I've had to now quit riding "for health reasons"
I got taken out last September by a woman driver who jumped
a red light. She t-boned me writing off my 1995 Urban tiger Blade.
She also dislocated my big toe and right knee, this caused the
anteria and posteria cruciate ligaments and colateral ligaments
in my right knee to snap. I had two operations to try to reconstruct
my knee, including transplant ligaments from a donnor. The knee was about 80% stable and I was then about to start physio. The doctor cleared me to drive and ride again. So I went out a few times and it felt ok to ride. Then Friday night a month ago I met another idiot driver.

I rounded a blind left hander in a 40 zone, I was doing about 30 when a woman in a drive way on the right handside decided to reverse across her side of the road and into my path without looking.
I was given meters to stop in. I ended hitting her mid pillar of her car and head butting the roof before being fliped over the car and landing twisted.

I've came away with an open book fracture of the pelvis, which has been opperated on and i'm currently wearing an external fixator pinned in 6 places into my hips. I also received a broken wrist.

Both me and my brilliant girlfriend Suzi are now giving up on bikes. She did have an 05 R6 and I had an extremly tricked up 05 Repsol FireBlade.

I'm lucky to be here after the second smash and even asked to die at the scene but no one wanted me yet. I'm going to be out of this fixator in 7 weeks and I'm going to stick to my other hobbies of Jet sking and scuba diving.
