Blackbird problems

  1. Likewise on my shiney new XL125.. picked it up, went to Sainsburys,
    tried to impress group of girlies with it's power (!) and ended up sat
    on my backside as the brand-new tyre slipped on the freshly-laid and
    damp carpark..

    Mind you - the next time I dropped it was a year later and that
    consisted of ramming it into the side of a car..

    And I followed the same sort of route by borrowing my mates' RD50s and
    binning them whilst learning the subtle art of staying upright before buying
    my own 50 thing with 5 gears (one for every 6mph!!) and never binning it....

    Heh. I soon binned my CG125 [MSOHPR]. Not with my first wheelie though,
    surprisingly enough.

    On black ice. Bust a finger. Then fell off on the way home too.

    Taxi driver gave me a fag and tried to cheer me up telling me how he'd
    just seen a cop car go through a shop window down the road...
