I think he hit the car. His front tire is back into the crossover pipe like the forks are bent.
I don't get caught in the rain, I ride in it on purpose.

Now that I look more closely, I think you're right. I just hope it's the rider that took the picture.

Hmmmm.....finally there is proof that the BMW boxer is a perfectly balanced motorbike.....see!!!!

Witness accounts indicate that the rider became airborne and landed in the Thames river suffering no other injury than wet riding gear. The driver of the car, sufered from an exterme bout of anal seepage, which kept the first aid respondents at bay while the car was hosed down.

The picture was taken by the pillon rider which carefully dismounted an instant prior to the collission, to record the event for posterity......who says that pics aren't worth a thousand words..... :-k :-k
