Man, I have nothing to say about your everyone's-done-it "drop," but I *am* jealous of your bike-righting skills (or muscle). The two times I've had to stand my bike up were a huff and wheeze spectacular. And it's a lightish 250.

It's raining pretty regular in Sydney today so I'm wearing my rain sausage (http://www.sierrabmwonline.com/images/298_A0118907_large.jpg) over my armor. I got off my bike just now and immediately slipped over onto my arse. Didn't feel a thing. Remember dudes, AGATT.

Slavvy posted:Stuart Lennard is either the greatest saint Australia has ever known, or he's secretly glad these dumb cunts have removed themselves from the gene pool, and trying to damage control things because it happened to happen in his state. We're talking about a country with a former Prime Minister famous for being able to drink a pint of beer in under 6 seconds. I think Lennard might be sincere. We may have lost a couple of future heads of state there. For those not familiar with Australian politics: this guy used to run the country. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5mBShX9fdU Quoth wikipedia: wikipedia article on Bob Hawke posted:His academic achievements were complemented by setting a new world speed record for beer drinking; he downed 2 1⁄2 imperial pints (1.4 l) - equivalent to a yard of ale - from a sconce pot in 11 seconds as part of a college penalty.[13][14] In his memoirs, Hawke suggested that this single feat may have contributed to his political success more than any other, by endearing him to a voting population with a strong beer culture

Frosty- posted:Unless the puddle of blood you're lying in is extremely large, refuse ambulance transportation, as well as any form of hospitalization, or clinic attention. At no point since my crash has a medical person done anything other than look at me and tell me I'll be fine, that'll be $600, please.  Never gets old.
