FUGIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII...YOU HAVE A BIKE?????????????????????????????

WHY don't you ride it? You know you wanna...

Worst case of 'rash' I ever got was when I was JUST 16, my neighbor had a Harley. Was teaching me to ride it between the alley and front street, between the houses. His house has this sandy, gritty, asbestos type shingles looking siding. Was 1969, September. I had on shorts. SHORT shorts. Seems I got a weeeeeeee bit too close to the house. Seems I left 3 layers of my right thigh on his siding. From hip to knee.

But I was cockadoodle at school the next day. "WHAT HAPPENED?" "I dumped a motorcycle I was riding." (technically didn't dump it, but it sounded cool)

Still have a scar on my thigh from a fall, and a scar on my calf from a muffler burn.

GAH. You're making me really want to ride. Everyone I know has this big ol' touring bikes, roadsters. I've seen cars smaller than some of these bikes. They don't even feel like riding on a bike.
