My bike...

[ThunderChicken]

Well, it was a very hot and humid day today.

29 deg C and 68% humidity.

I was with VTEC. We were on our uber bikes (His is an old 1980's spray painted orange, with forks replaced with his other bike's with front suspension. My bike is actaully my sister's bike. No suspension. Bad seat. reflectors are snapped off. handle bard are out of whack. Chain ate my third pair of pants. etc.)
with his red plastic wagon tied to his seat with 4 meters of rope. We go into his front street and swing this wagon around and smash it into curbs.

Today, we decided to smash it into one of us on our bikes. He get's up to speed, turns around, wagon hits my bike and I fly off the side. When I look at the bike, the back tire is COMPLETELY TWISTED!! It looked as if I was hit my a car. I'll try and post a picture of it.

I guess all the heat weakened the rim, and then made it soft like silly putty.

That is the third bike I have destroyed this year.

lol, You know your young when you are convinced returning shopping carts to get a quarter is a part time job.

You get a quarter to return shopping carts!!!! Cool...I wish I had a part-time job.

Hey TC I just noticed!!! I am a few months older than you and here I was thinking you were 25

btw 29 C = 84 F for all of those confused americans out there *cough* enat *cough*

[ThunderChicken]

Yea, I think I act too mature on Forums like this.

Oh yeah, this one time, since we take the wagon with us back and forth to our houses, I hit it sideways when it was in motion and it flipped like 6 times. We dicided that VTEC should be at the end of the street while I use the full block to get up to speed.

VTEC was beside the boulevard and the wagon was in the middle of the road tied to his bike. When I hit the wagon, VTEC flew into his handlebars and.. *ahem* hurt himself. I...Hit the wagon, bike got tangled in the rop and I flew about 2 meters and hit the ground with my right pinky, right elbow, right hip and right knee. It's fun to roll around on the road for 3 minutes

I still have more stories if you're interested.

Why wouldn't I? I'm a bit of an adrenaline freak but it's like a 3 mile bike ride mostly uphill to the nearest dirt hill..kind of thing.... Well, it's a big dip where there used to be water by the river and now it's formed into a steep drop with a few dirt ramps. I gotta go there tomo..Ohno, I can't, bike's busted :o
