rice burners don't count ed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
just kidden ed,just the old school biker comin out in me,as long as your in the wind ,that is all that matters,at least you don't have to carry a tool pack everywhere,huh?
here is an ol biker storie for ya,i road with the southern ohio roadriders for 10 year,served as sargent of arms for 4 and retired when i got my brain caught up with my body or vice versa,anyway,i always road a harley,made the mistake of buyin a rice burner once,a 82 suzuki 850 gsl,the early rice rockets or lay down sport bikes,well,you ever heard the saying,loud pipes save lives?
here is my story,i was riding with an ol buddy of mine,james "fuzzy" damron,(curently serving 2 life senteces for 2 murders,now you understand why i got out?)anyway,fuzz threw a chain on his sportster,i had my ol lady and his was with him,he told his to ride back to the house about 5 miles away and get the truck and tie downs,well,she said i don't know where the ties are,so fuzz jumped on the back,that was my 2nd mistake,never ride a dude on your bike,anyway,i hit a backroad that runs parrallel to the main highway,thinkin could jam down that road cause no cops,well i was runnin about 70 mph,rounded a slite curve and hit a straight away,so i cracked the throttle,then BOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OUT JUMPS A 12 POINT BUCK,I HAD NO TIME TO REACT,IT LANDED RIGHT ON THE HANDLEBARS AND FRONT END,FUZZ WENT OVER MY BACK AND HIT THE PAVEMENT AND STARTED ROLLING,HE SAID HE CAME TO HIS FEET QUICK AND TURNED AROUND AND SAW ME,THE DEER,AND BIKE FLIPPING TOWARD HIM,HE RAN AWAY FROM US,ALL I REMEMBERED WAS COMING TO WHILE I WAS ROLLING DOWN THE ROAD,I SAW DAYLIGHT-PAVEMENT,DAYLIGHT-PAVEMENT,I FELT LIKE I WAS COMING TO A STOP SO I WENT TO STAND UP,BUT SHOT STRAIGHT IN THE AIR CAUSE MY BODY WAS STILL GOIN 70-80 MPH.IT ALL HAPPENED SO FAST BUT SEEMED LIKE AN ETERNITY.WELL WE SHOULD HAVE DIED,NO HELMENTS,NO SHIRTS AND SHORTS ON,I BROKE MY NOSE,AND HE GOT TWO TEETH KNOCKED OUT,AND WE BOTH LOST A LOT OF SKIN,ROADRASH,IT SUCKS,THE STATE BOT MEASURED FROM THE SKID MARK TO WHERE I WAS LAYING WAS 140 YARDS!!!!!
I WILL NEVER FORGET WHAT HAPPENED NEXT:
THEY LOADED US IN THE AMBULANCE AND DROVE TO THE HOSPITAL,FUZZ LOOKED AT ME IN THE AMBULANCE AND SAID,"BREADMAN,ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS MY TWO FRONT TEETH"!!!!
YOU TALK ABOUT LUCKY,SOMEONE WAS LOOKIN OVER US THAT DAY!!!!!!!
