Sshh: My special blonde moment ....

[Toast]

what a koon.l it was left there to be stolen an an insurance check, jeeeeez people like you. now who wants to steal my bike, i need a good aliby see.

Now that I think about it, I really wanted that thing to get stolen, as it was insured at $5k and was smashed to hell from my learner days...maybe it was a subconcious thing to leave the keys in...hmm...

Hahaha, takes a brave individual to admit that. Thanks and well done

Well, if everyone was really honest, they'd all say that they have done it also.

Reminds me of a friend of mine in Sydney who got out of the cage one night, walked up to her front door, pointed the cage alarm control at it and pressed the button. Took her a couple of attempts before she realised what the problem was!

I hate when you put your keys in your inside jacket pocket, then when you go to leave, you get all dressed up, scarf round neck, zip up leathers, helmet on, gloves on, hop on bike ....... no keys in ignition! D'oh!

Hahaha, takes a brave individual to admit that. Thanks and well done

If my idiocy can bring smiles to a sometimes sullen world...then I might just be saved from hell for all the other shit

The worst I've done pretty much tops everyone elses.

I usually leave my bike in neutral when parked at all times, but for some reason I decided to leave it in 1st one day. Came out after school and was talking to some mates whilst putting the keys in the ignition, hit the started and "HOLY SHIT WHAT IS HAPPENING!"

The bike lurged forward and stalled and fell over, but my leg held it up with the only damage the ball snapping off the end of my already damaged clutch lever.

Went and blamed it on the 'loser scooter' riders who must have been tampering with my bike who obviously put my bike into first as I always leave it in neutral.

Hahaha oh damn !!!
I had a bad one, and near dropped my bike when getting off it,
Forgot the kickstand xD

[disenfranchised]

Reminds me of a time when I was young, and was going to the movies with some mates (in a car).
After I parked it and got out I shut the door locking it, only to realise that I'd left the keys inside....in the ignition....with the engine still running.

Had to call my folks to drive all the way into town to let me back in with the spare set.

Last weekend, always put keys inside zipped inner pocket of bike jacket. All zips done up AND the wet gear over the top spaceman like.
Brain thinks . . . . "where' the keys?" . . . . . Four zips and three velcro closures later get the keys and now I have to close all valcro and zips.
Oh! Getting old is hard work! Cheers .

[sunhuntin]

i think mine tops the lot!

took a weekend trip to taupo. all ready and set to go. sneakers in the top box, cos screw walking around in steel cap cowboy boots all day!
get to national park and have a break. continue on to taupo, book room, and unload back pack and saddle bags from bike. go to get sneakers to go into town. pat my jean pockets. check jacket. look in backpack, saddlebags, camera bags, and then back to the jeans.
now, these keys are very important: house key, work key, spare key for mums car, top box key. i think, when did i last use it? putting my sneakers in. where did i put them? pat jeans again while thinking. hmm... i dont remember doing anything with them!!
hurry back to bike, and sure enough, my lil keys are sitting happily in the top box lock!! all the way from wanganui to taupo, up the paraparas, and through some wicked fog from national park to taupo.
no wonder the tourists at nat. park were looking at me funny!! how they didnt fall out, ill never know.

i have also done the old lose the glasses that are on the head and lose the keys/pencil/eraser that is in my hand/mouth/etc.

[mattimeo]

If I had a dollar for the number of times I've parked up then accidentally left my key in the ignition... Whoops

Guess I'm lucky!

Number of years ago I went into town (60km) in mums car, filled it up with fuel on the way home, pulled into garage all sweet. Was walking round car and saw the fuel cap still sitting on the boot.... Wowzers/phew I'm telling myself... it managed to wedge it self somehow into the crack of the boot and back window and stay there through 60kms of twisty roads... how - I have NFI to this day...

[roadracingoldfart]

One thing i reeeeallly hate is , when you do loose something and some good samaratin comes to help you they ask , "where did you loose them".
Hello thats why im looking for them and they are classed as lost you plank.
I really hate when that happens.

[Chickadee]

Yep, we all have these moments of brain vacation!

I turned up on a ride in the early days of my riding. Left the key in and on. Yep battery was on the way out but this was all it needed to go completely flat. Managed to push start her just before we left (mad panic with everyone else around waiting to go). Really makes you feel 10cms tall!

Haven't made that mistake again
