Chesty almost bit the farm today...

[chesty]

While out on our first bike ride of the season, I was rounding a corner and the truck in front of me decided to almost stop, forcing me to slow down and that of course caused the bike to straighten up and shoot towards the centerline. At the same time a truck pulling a boat was rounding the curve and his trailer tires were on the centerline.

Well, we met at about 15 mph each. I destroyed his tire rim and damaged his fender on the trailer, he destroyed my generator cover, fairings and gear selector arm and I bruised some toes.

I then spent 4 hours in the middle of the desert, in the middle of nowhere wondering who's dinner I was going to be, while my friend went back for a trailer to put the bike on.

Now I am gonna have to wait like six weeks for the next ride till I can get the damage repaired. At least the Highway Patrol was cool and said we could just exchange information so our insurance rates (especially mine) didn't go up!

 

[spongebob]

good thing you didnt get hurt.

 

[chesty]

Tell me about it! Just some ego bruising I think and my big toe!

 

[Kakdiesel]

hi chesty

 

[chesty]

Well, off to bed, I'll let you all know how my big toe is in the morning. Bike is in stable condition, waiting for rehab!

 

[Razorguns]

be careful with bikes.

My friend is a doc and he sees SCARY motorcycle victims. Even worse wen they don't wear helmets (stoopid)

 

[Pamela]

Wrong guy...I don't have a cycle. I would but the odds stack against you.

You keep riding at 100 mph and you will die. All it takes is a small animal crossing the road.

 

[Testosterone boy]

Like a cat or a dog or a deer or a rabbit or a........................

 

[PBR]

Chesty....wtf bro?...glad youre ok. close call. ive hit a bumble bee at 100mph, it about took my head off...

 

[WarriorPL]

Damn bro.. sorry to hear. What matters is that you're okay though.

Takes 6 weeks to fix the bike? Thats a bit long..

I'll bet you've seen some gruesome motorcycle accident victims.

I seen a pic whre the rider left his nutsack on the handlebar as he went flying past it. A very gruesome accident at high speed.

It could of been cooler to say that you got yourself pinned by a boulder and had to hack your arm off. Or his.

 

[chesty]

All I know is it was close and someone up top is watching out for me. Toe is fine and ego is better.

If that's true, then what do you blame your disasterous dates on?

had one guy leave the road and go airborne into a steel fabricating yard
what a mess
those steel beams tore through him

 

[chewyxrage]

You better take it easy. Hitting that chair on the highway and now this? You and motor vehicles aren't real good friends, eh?

 

[chesty]

doesn't seem like it. seems I am luckier in some areas better than others. Like girl areas I am not so lucky in!

 

[chewyxrage]

Just show them junior. He has his own game

 

[chesty]

That is true, he does have his own agenda!
