Another way to seriously injure myself!

I have found another way to get hurt. Last year I bought a dual sport motorcycle. It is essentially a dirt bike with blinkers and a license plate so it can be driven on the street. Last night was the first time I actually took it up the mountains and used it like its supposed to be used. I was a blast. I can say I came out unscathed....I can't say the same for the bike :-)
After several instances where the tires became less than perpendicular with the road the results are:


a) a front brake lever that requires a bit of hand contorsion to pull
b) a few nice new scratches on the plastic
and
c) a speedometer which only tells the correct speed when I'm at a redlight (its and easy fix!)






...but it was worth it and I'm ready to go again!
