What a cute exchange. Nice save Azzork.

Reminds me of when I was like 8 years old. My friend got a BRAND NEW SHINY BIKE for his birthday. Before he'd even rode it once he asked if I wanted to try it out. So I hop on and started getting it going, booking down the sidewalk.

Only problem was...this was a 10 speed...with HANDLEBAR BRAKES. I had only ridden kids bikes with one gear, where to break you back-pedal. Soooooooooooo......as the sidewalk reached a "T" with a wooden fence at the end I start trying to slow down. Needless to say my feet spin backwards in circles and nothing happens. SMASH! Into the fence I go. I got a bit beat up, but the bike was seriously wounded. Maybe mortally. I can't remember. But broken reflector plastic and bent metal for sure.

Funny how memory works. I can't remember the aftermath. But I felt horrible, that much I remember.

Anyway, silly how sometimes the smallest things can make a big difference wink
