A Public Apology

[Rich_W]

I would like to apologise to everyone who attended todays Croydon meet.

My driving was utterly stupid and reckless, and I may have jeopardised future meets in that area.

Money will be changing hands regarding this incident.

Please learn from my error and be more aware of the dangers that showing off can lead to.



Rich

hardly any damage at all, just a little black mark,

[Toby_Unna]

happens to the best of us mate, if no-one gets hurt then you just learn from it. they're just cars and can always be repaired, it's only money.

[Ant]

dude fair play to ya.

was close call indeed, but dont worry about future meets etc, those bikes are there every dry Sunday and never get turfed offsite.

you were unlucky, grip then no grip, V weird

if you need "witnesses" then gimme a shout, I'll vouch for the diesel spill

[andyp]

o yeah i also had a slide on the diesel, but he only needs a tin of t-cut

[Lizzie]

Anyone got any video clips or photos of this?

[Ant]

TBH LIzzie I think its better if ther are none

you get me peeps ?

Oh, and bootymans car is the Don !! that paint is awesome, trim job is out of this world too.

plenty of pix to come later for those interested.

Me, I arrived in style, in a Vectra

no offence Andy

[Rich_W]

Cheers guys.

I got home, and felt pretty ill about it. Ive had somebody shaft my car up the arse and the fook off. It aint a nice feeling. I believe in the old "What goes around comes around"


Ive posted the pics btw of the meet here >>>> Click this text

EDIT : Lizzie, How much of a twat do I feel though. Especially as I was one of the people that didnt want stupid driving

[Lizzie]

TBH LIzzie I think its better if ther are none

I meant of the meet, not the accident - I'm not that sick thanks very much!

I AM!

Rich, if you're brave enough mate, id like to hear what happened while you were leaving. (not trying to rub salt into the wound, just interested...in a sort of twisted sad way)

[Simon]

There's always one!

[SCOTT325SE]

i try to ensure that "that one" is always me!

[Rich_W]

Sorry Scott.

Wont be doing that. If you were there you know. I was being a twat is all I'll say.

Lets just see how it pans out regarding paying for the damage first.

Hope you understand

[SCOTT325SE]

nps mate, nps at all.

[Simon13]

at least you did the right thing and owned up. I really believe what goes around comes around too.

Ant what was that web site you told me today, which sold the wider rim thing for the bbs split rims?

[M3RAGS]

missed the meet

[Simon13]

Rags did you get my PM? i take it that by having your other alternator reconditioned you don't need my help?

[M3RAGS]

hey man,

yeah sorry, have been having PC problems all bloody day...

will pm ya again!

[placey]

what goes around comes around. hmm. you seemed to go around quite nicely from where i was standing.

i think you have acted sensibly and with honour. if i could have gone round that corner like that i would have.

[Sooty]

I wasn't there but I do know that it takes a big man to accept that he's done something wrong & an even bigger man to publicly admit to it without being pressured into it (unlike politicians).
Respect to you Rich.

[andyp]

i would just like to take this chance and say thanks to the mad crew { you no who you are} for showing us the way there and very very nice fast cars all of them. THANKS.

[bootyman]

Hey i was there and it was nice to meet some peeps from the forum at last. All of you are top dudes and thanks Mr Old school P for the coffee

As for the little blip, it really wasn't that bad at all, and Rich, i dont think you were being silly at all mate. I was there a couple of hours and i saw no one from the Zone chaving around in their car. We all just stood round chatting and watching the bikers do their thing. It was only when we were all leaving that a couple of peeps took that bend a bit fast, but that was in no way an offense worth getting your nuts chopped off for, so i think you should give yourself a break Rich.

By the way whoever ownes that silver M3, that was some bloody nice driving and that M3 is proper fat like me

[andyp]

VIDEO footage is ready for downloading in the pic section, sorry it aint much but i was foo-ing freeeeeeeezzzzing.

[Darylzimm3]

By the way whoever ownes that silver M3, that was some bloody nice driving and that M3 is proper fat like me

" Thankyou Please "

[japcarkiller]

[Rich_W]

Right. Money has now been exchanged and a Disclaimer signed by the Branch manager of the VW showroom.


Hopefully thats the end of it all now.

[Wilson325i]
