things not ro do on a bike

1) Assume that you can make it over that same railroad track the second time around, directly after landing on your face the first time...

2) Ride too closely to the car mirrors along the side of the road

3) Assume that person standing in the middle of the road will not jump out in front of you when you try to go around them
-this one was a close call... this lady had her car parked dead center in the middle of the street, between a row of parked cars on each side. She was standing by her open door chit chatting, and there was maybe 2 feet of room between her, her car, and the parked cars. Another cyclist was coming at her opposite of me (about equal distance as I was), and we just about all ended up on the ground right where she was standing!

Don't try to jump the curb like you've seen your brothers do, going too slow, and have the bars ripped out of your hands, and let the end of the bar with the missing grip strike you centered on your tiny little nipple on the front of your baby-flat chest.

I can still remember the shape of the bruise. I was 8.

Tuck--LOL!!!

Don't try to ride barefooted like your big brother and leave your pedal down as you take the curb and skin the hide off your big toe.

New to clipless pedals, one should not wonder, "Just how slow could I go before I fall down..."

Pop a wheelie unless you are certain your handlebars are securely fastened to the rest of your bike.................

*Carry two miniature wiener dogs inside of your zipped up jacket............*





*One's leash slipped out of my jacket, got caught in the wheel, and the three of us flipped over the handlebar. The wiener dogs remained safely tucked into the jacket for the entire stunt.

Now THAT is a hilarious picture! lol.

It just wouldn't have been as funny if the dogs had been, say, black labs.

I think I prefer to watch guys riding in packs from afar. They smell better that way.( lets keep the illusion alive)\\

Bee in the mouth. man, that makes gnats seem mild! yikes!

If a trail is overgrown with tall grass and vines, don't ride through it and destroy your shiny new rear derailleur.
