Most people have had those Doh! moments that has resulting in some injury of some description. I had one such Brick Wall today.

After trying to sort a small problem with the monkey I had the urge to burn some rubber. It later transpired that I did in fact not have control of the front brake and the bike then hurtled towards the end of the garage a'la youtube but this time I didn't cover the clutch in time and managed to ram the bike and me under the work bench.

After having to pull quite hard to shift the bike I did contemplate doing it again as to prove that I still can but valor got the better of me.

Feel like a right pillock as I've now got scrapes and friction burns on my arm and shoulder from not handling the moster 6bhp.

The old 'think the side stand is down, but it isn't' outside Tescos......

Suffice to say help arrived once the laughter had died down.
