Accident pe accident

I travel to and fro office with Mayuresh as there is immense pain in last three toes if I drive (and good for both of us as we stay in same building). On 3 km stretch of inner ring road there is just one place to take U turn, so road is jammed durin peak hours near taht u turn. One can pass through the jam in 30-60 second (50 m stretch). Well, the scooty in line of my bike around 20 meters ahead of me skidded off on sand which had become line mud due to heavy rains very early morning. Mayuresh asked me to pick up the scooty. I was pretty afraid of picking up the bike due to the weak joints after accident and moreover I was not confident of picking up. This female had skidded off exactly the same location where I met accidnet, just another side of road.

We were destined to meet accident. Mayuresh had mood to have good tea and in whole area there was only one good place to have good tea : Hotel Gangotri. But we had to take a conventional, longer and heavily trafficted route to reach there. Generally, we take a short cut so as to avoid traffic. Around 70 meters away from the signal, he was at 55-60. He applied break. That was late braking, at least as per me. My braking is very smooth, specailly I know I have to stop. (common, it is red lights, I cna't ram into the cars and jump signal). Street lights were not working. Immediately after braking, bike ntered into a proper (and very dangerous) mud area around 20 meters long. Bike skidded mildy and he gain control of bike once again as Mayuresh released break. But he again applied break as he had to stop. Everytime he applied break bike skidded and everytime he released brakes he gain control. Bike was travelling in zigzag. This happened 7-8 times. He could not let bike brake relased and go smoothly as we had reached very close to the cars stopped at red lights. Finally he applied full brakes. Bike skidded and I fell off. While trying to jump (and land safly being injured in right leg), I strained my right thigh a bit. Bike got some scratches on leg guard and mirror. We escaped unhurt, lickily. One thing I must say, the accident was aviodable but Mayuresh handled it extrenely well too.
