Default Fricken squirrel
I was out riding yesterday with a group and a squirrel runs right into my bike broadside! I didn’t even know what it was until the guy behind told me at the next light said it was a squirrel. After a few miles I lost rear brake pressure and when I get home the rear brake master cylinder is lying sideways and completely broken off! It was completely broken off and just lying there. The squirrel must have hit it head on and just snapped the plastic housing in half.

There must have been a bet with the other squirrels that he could take out a Harley.

Ride safe,

Bob.
