Ooooops - done this the other night, coming off a roundabout(too fast in wet conditions) onto a dual carriageway, back end kicked oot and I went sideways over the central reservation ending up on the grass on the other side(lucky nothing was coming the other way )- not much damage (about £300) but I thought Id share a picture of a mangled alloy

That bit of road is pretty dodgy with the wee farms about there dropping mud about there. Seen a few big skid marks across the grass there at times. At least they have resurfaced it as you approach the road abit if you are heading to larbert, at least you don't just about skip/bounce onto the roundabout now.
The pics don't work for me either

Yes Adam this is true - but your just frigging mad.

Unlucky - yes but not as bad as it should have been.
