Likwid Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 Ouch, glad you're ok.Taking the MSF I just found out the first thing to do if you lock the rear tire is to KEEP the back tire locked..... otherwise what happened to you happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightRider Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 You know that's right! Hell I just crashed my computer last night.. I wish my crash count was really at ZERO.. not even close.. That's what I told her, and then make me a sandwich.. Damn straight. Glad to hear your ok Sara. I'm a pervert...but if i was Zero...i wouldn't have any problem helping you ice things.

cmoosego Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 dang girl.... at least you got it out of the way early... now you can focus on riding the limits on it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchmuckGirl Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 (edited) Sara, we've all been there at one point or another..... I got mine out of the way early too. You'll think about it and learn a lesson to take away but really it's all about seat time and gaining experience. Glad you're relatively ok and hope your ankle doesn't continue to hurt. Get back on that bike and try, try again! Edited June 11, 2009 by SchmuckGirl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V4junkie Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 Next time you get a little extra $$$ upgrade those boots. Everyone's wreck is different but many of us gear heads can tell you how important boots are. I expect that after this you already know!My get off was only about 50-60mph but despite the bike going down ON my foot, the Sidi's didn't give one bit.Too bad you don't wear a guys size 12 boot, I have some white offroad A* boots just sitting around.

Sara_Rides Posted June 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 Too bad you don't wear a guys size 12 boot, I have some white offroad A* boots just sitting around.Haha, yea, too bad...in men's I wear a size 8, 12 would be a bit big. Zero has already said I need better boots. He's pretty much on your side with that. He's a gear guy too, lucky for me, otherwise my crash could have been way worse!

RVTPilot Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 I should totally change my name to onecrash If you do that, then the rest of us will have to change our names to either gonnacrash, or gonnagreashagain.Glad to hear you're okay. I know this sounds dumb, but I believe to to a degree, a crash can inspire more confidence once you get back on the horse, as you now know what it's like. You survived it, and know why it happened. So, you don't do it again, and don't get nervous next time you are in a similar situation.Now go make zero's san'wich, girl! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGTL GRL Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 Aw, thank you...that's so sweet. Are you coming to the BIG bike night tonight? I'd love to meet you...have some girl talk etc. No, I am not riding my bike yet. LOL Want to take my course which starts tomorrow evening first. Where it the bike night at? Thursdays they have Bike Night at Conways in Marysville. 50cent wings and low cost drinksConways is right off of 33 where the Bob Evans used to be. We have gone there a couple of times.Crappy weather tonight though.Soo.. where is the bike night tonight that you're speaking of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 Glad you and your bike are okay... Sounds like you've learned the cardinal rules of rain riding the hard way. 1) Stay out of the center of the lane, 2) Careful on the road stripes (tar in the cracks is slick too), 3) Be smooth in everything, especially the brakes. Heal up quick, and jump back on that thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
