New rule for riding
Blastin' down the road on Sunday and one of the damn saddlebag lids blew off. It was my fault, I didn't put it on right earlier in the day. Flew over my buddy, he was riding 30 feet behind me, landed right on the windshield of a car, bounced off and landed on the side of the road. Everyone was ok, and the owner of the car was cool about it. Went back to get it and was amazed it was in one piece and not cracked. It's scratched to hell and looks like ****, but it's functional and it finished out the rest of the 400 mile ride just fine. Damn glad too, there tough to get a replacement for nowadays. Ah well, a little prep and paint and it'll look like new.
Another 100 miles or so into therideand we stop to get gas and one of the damn rubber floorboard pads has decided to leave my bike. The 18yr old glue decided it was time to pack it in and call it a day. My buddy just looked at me and said "yeah, I sawthat fall off to and I saw about 5 cars run it over so it's definitly gone". I'm just sitting there putting gas in my bike and thinkin' WTF!?!
A little Later on in the day, me and my buddy are sitting at a bar getting some wings and planning out how were going to get back home. He looks at me and says "Here's the new rule, anything less that a foot and half long falls off your bike and were not stopping for it!" needless to say we sprayed most of our beer and wings out our noses from laughin so hard. The Bartender just looked at us like we were nuts. Ah well, at least we got a new road rule now.

Remind me never to ride "behind" you. Maybe you will be the next thing 'flying' off the bike.
