i found out earlier this week that i had to move my bike from it's current location. i decided to move it friday night after work. was planning on just jumping on LSD up to my place but it turned out it was a parking lot so i moved through the city instead. which probably wasn't much better but at least i was moving.
so not only was a freezing my ass off bc it was 25 degrees but "drop" the bike. :banghead: about halfway home i get a arrow to turn right. right as i'm leaning into the turn some fucking bitch runs across the intersection. i didn't panic. i didn't even slam on the breaks, no skidding or anything but bc i was already leaning when the bike came to a stop i couldn't hold it up. i held it as long as i could and then hopped off the bike and landed on my bike like a fucking turtle. i bitched the chick out, picked the bike up, looked it over and rolled out. maybe i should have drop kicked her but i was cold and pissed and just said fuck it.
anyway, the good thing - the bike got 2 small ass scratches. one on the exhaust cover and another barely noticable on the frame bolt. not a single scratch on the plastics at all. i lucked out no doubt but :wtf: WHAT THE FUCK WAS SHE THINKING? people are so fucking stupid. :rant:
beyond that i also decided to ride yesterday. yes it was a bit chilly but hell the sun was out. :laughing: the only part of me that was cold was my thumb. i think my gloves were too tight and therefore the circulation wasn't that great. after purchasing some thinner inserts the ride back was a lot better. come on warmer weather!!!
