Rider down... bahaha. It was me.

[pacman]

No, not on a real bike.

On my way back from the gym last night, on the scooter, im just a turn or two away from home, leaning into a corner as much as one can on a scooter... I hear the familliar scrape of the side stand on the road, and just as I giggle to myself and think about straightening it up - it catches!!

The scooter, almost, i guess, spins around on the stand (The back tire must have lifted off the road a little due to the sidestand) and throws me off. The spinning action of the scooter had taken a lot of what little speed i was doing off, and I just kind of thumped to the ground.

Anyway, no real damage to the scooter (broken mirror) and I bruised my hip a little, and it was kinda neat. I've been riding for 7 or 8 years... and I get to have my first prang on a scooter I'd been riding for about 3 weeks!

Anyway, I had a cackle to myself, dusted the scooter off and went home.
