    My crash report

     

    While testing my new bike for the under 50HP ride that Armadillo has planned.  I tossed it.

    JTB was NOT happy! (  * see note below)

     

     

     

     

     

    However, I'm ok now! Just a separated shoulder.

     

    Moral of the story.  Do not put the front brake lever where the clutch should go on a bicycle.

     

     

     

    * not necessarily the same happy face I saw at 9pm in the ER from JTB, these are recreation photos of her expression.

    so much I wanted 2 accomplish
    before I reached my Death
    I have come 2 grips with the possibility

    'crash ratio' with this one is high.  i want to say it was the 3rd time he threw his leg over it... and first time he high sided so.... 1:3.  better than once every 2 times at throwing the leg over :P

    and yes..... 36 days til the big day... he BETTER heal up and FAST. Pizza

    Apparently this is what a shoulder separation looks like.

    Re: My crash report

     

    Is that a 1000? I love the Vortex handlebars and the wheelie sprocket. Yes

    Why in the world would you grab a handful of handbrake (clutch)? Sorry you got bangged up that bad man, I could just pic how you and the bike went breakdancing. I hope you feel better. 

     

    OH BTW!........................ SQUID!

    Rasta Monsta! Taste like fruit punch pero spicy.......

    Nahh...  It's no 1000, but it is a 66cc'er top of the line Chinese made.  I can beat any 1000 at the gocart track in Frederick or in Crofton with this thing!!!  If you look at the photo close you'll see that the front brake is on top and right under it is a second lever, the clutch.  That was the one I should have pulled when trying to come to a slow safe stop.  I thought the term SQUID was reserved for those in the NAVY Pizza
