Title: Not my day today.
Post by: aqxea2500 on April 06, 2006, 04:06:24 PM
 Well today is not my day kind of. first on my way to school my bike starts sputtering and It dies out before I can put it on reserve and I almost got rear ended. Then after lunch I went home to get some books I needed then I remembered, I forgot my backpack, so I tilt the bike over to put it on the kickstand only that the kickstand was already up  I tried to stop her from falling but it was too late. :mad: So then I pick it back up and it doesnt want to start. So finally it starts and I made it to school safely. After school on my way home I was going through and intersection and some guy ran the stop sign, I panicked and grabbed a handfull of brake, my front wheel locked at like 40mph  :o I felt the front start to slide,squeel, and go down somehow I didnt go down. So as soon as I got home I put the bike up and dont feel much like riding today!! I HATE THESE DAYS!!

I had one of those days not long ago...  Like you said, it's best to just get off it and try again later.

 :thumb:  When I had my day, I ran a red light...  If anyone was coming, I would have DIED!  Lucky for me no one was...  I should have pulled over right then and walked home.  :cookoo:

Word.  If you're not feeling up to it, don't ride.  You'll own end up riding worse because you're upset.  Take the cage, and ride another day when you feel better.

It's like getting angry at yourself in poker.  You just end up deeper in the hole.
