I hit the front brake to stop rolling and didn't realize I was on gravel. Front end slid right out on me and I walked off the bike. It was my buddies bike and he had only owned it for 2 weeks when I dumped it which ended up needing a new mirror and had a scratched brake handle. Luckily that was it but it sure was embarassing because there were a few people who saw it happen.
yeah the worst is when somebody sees you do something stupid.
my buddy decided to show off for this girl who was walking out of the mall. he gets on, stated it up & started revving it showing off. then he puts it in gear & starts to speed of.....forgetting that he didn't take his rotor lock off. i think you can guess what happened about 1/2-second later when the rotor lock rotated around & impacted the caliper
:doh: :lmfao:
it was funny as hell & not so much so at the same time.....but we still give him shit about it to this day
