Hmm, so where do I begin... Had an absolute **** day from the start. Then, to top all things off, teacher makes going to the basketball game,(which we lost, all black team from ritneuor or something like that) a required task, for points!? That made me unhappy. Rode to school, no problems, cold, but all good. So, figured, well hell, Il ride to this game and save some gas! Got there safe, time to leave. Ride up the lower lot, make a right to go into the upper lot. Roll around the corner, and before I knew what happened, I was layin under it! Scooted out, pulled in the clutch, got on, and rode off. Lucky me, no one saw. When home, and inspected the damage. Turns out, by me being the cheap bastard I am, I just cost my self WAY more money(that I dont have)...
Thats my story, heres the ugly proof,
leg, really not bad at all.

Bike, a bunch of little crap



I have now cheated severe injury twice on this thing, probably wont be so lucky next time. Moms freaked out, no more riding if its below freezing. I guess I can live with that.

That sucks, Matt, but it probably could've been a lot worse.

No school today FTW! Not being able to go anywhere because it's -16 degrees FTL!
