Painted Sidewalks

['04gs500f]

I will keep it short and sweet

Going home
Raining Hard
Rain sensative stuff in bag
Pull over to chili's
Try to drive up on sidewalk to get under the overhang
.... WAIT

It's painted!

(tiny bit of throttle)
(swoosh)
(scrape)

Did you tell your manager yet?

Sorry, I couldn't resist...

obviously, but i didnt mess up because of my "riding style", i was simply trying to get out of the rain *shrug* i was being pretty careful, but that doesnt really matter when your riding on the equivalent of teflon

hey glad to hear you're ok... but i guess that's a sign that chili's sucks: the less you eat there, the better off you are!!
