Sounds like you're here in Houston. Glad things worked out for you and the bike. Now if we can just get a break from this rain for the weekend. I'm having withdrawals from not riding.

Yup, welcome to the club. When I dumped my street bike for the first of 3 times, it was like slow motion. But I have no one to blame but myself.[:@]
all 3 times I had "some" drinks. I have never and will never again have any alcohol and get on my bike to ride.
Of course it was after the 3rd time that the light bulb came on I woke up[>:]

12stones, sounds like you did a hell of a job in a bad situation. I'm sure if you had not kept your head it would have been worse. Glad you didn't get hurt, nor did your scoot suffer.

I'm in the club sort of.
I like to pull straight out of my garage when I leave at 4:50 am in the morning so when I come in I in the evening I pull in to the garage and sesaw until I get turned around. My driveway is on an incline so turnng around outside and backing in is not an option. So one day I pull in and swing around to start the sesaw. I've got the bars turned hard right and I grabed the front brake to keep from runnning into the wall over she went two months old and down on the concrete I don't mind telling you that a UC is heavy and hard to get up off the ground my biggest fear was getting it up and it falling over on the other side. I made it man was I glad to get it on the jiffy stand.

The old oil in the center of the lane has claimed many a good rider.
