Anidel, I'm really sorry about how things went for you today.
Looking on the bright side, it was lucky you hadn't had an expensive repray and, perhaps luckier still, that you don't appear to have damaged the forks. The tubes can repaired, but I doubt if those forks could be replaced.
I'll post about the ride itself tomorrow.
Anyway, I think it's for the best. Was leaning towards not re-painting the frame, this would have meant probably not noticing the amount of rust beneath the paint (at least the two main tubes that failed)
A full check of the rest of the tubes is in order
