Well with close to 1000 miles a month as my only transportation im sure it will happen a few more times due to sand, gravel, operator error. I figure one lil drop at the 13k point aint bad. lol

I can deal with close calls. Its the drop that really pisses me off.

 

ill go ahead and put down one for someone i saw the otherday while at a stop light. a man in his 40's ran outa gas or something at the 4 way and desided to push it up the little incline of the sidewalk to get out of the street. BUT just couldnt muster the power to get it up there AND slowly it started to tip and slowly fall on him. I know he was like OH $**t Felt bad for the guy, but i was with a friend and he didnt want to stop and help. Its was a new bmw too....

 

Did my usual bike check before I took off, and everything was fine. Somewhere between my house and the first curve I picked up a nail/screw/sharp object.

Had my backend slide out on me. Scared the crap out of me. Saved it though.

 

I had a oh **** moment on Sunday. Was riding the alpine loop and that road is a two way road but should be a one way road anyways it has a lot of twists and in some parts it is so narrow and a drop off on the side of the road a lot of times with no guard rails. well come around a corner and a cager decides he needs to take up the whole road to make the turn forces me to the edge of the road wit ha nice little drop off and i just puckered and kept it balanced on that curve. let me tell ya that is some scary stuff.

 

this happened last weekend. I was driving my car home (had to take a load of **** back) and was passing this line of semi's on the freeway. I noticed there was a bike behind me and didn't think much about it. Then all of a sudden the semi I just passed started to change lanes. I gunned it so that the bike had someplace to go but he still ended up getting pushed onto the shoulder of the road... I Fin hate semis

 

A few years back I had a grandma whip into the fast lane for no reason as me and my girl were doing about 120 mph, had to slam on the brakes, & downshift, the bike started to skip or hop scared the **** outta me and well granny didn't even see us. Lucky for me we got the bike under control and didn't hit her or lay the bike down.
