Noobie mistakes - you name them

[Nagash]

Doing a bit of showing off on one of the wednesday night learner rides.. (some boys might remember this)

Coming into the car park meeting point with all the biker's lined up, I leaned extra far into the corner with tyres as bald as an eagle and low sided the thing..

Bike slid a good 6 or so metres leaving big gouges in the car park and not a single scratch on the bike.

That was embarrasing.. and there's an embarrasing reminder int he form of gouges every time we return to the car park..

First time ever on a bike, tried to put my leg on the ground coming to a stop, only to find that I couldn't move it. Toppled over with the 125 on top of me.

The kick-starter had gone into up trouser leg, and I couldn't move off the pedal.

My second bike, PE250 had to be stalled to stop, I was parked in front of dads shed and dropped the clutch, you guessed it, launched straight through three planks of fibro!

i got my first bike, an fxr150, in sixth form and was keen azz for a ride so woke up early the day after i got it and took it for a spin.....got out of the driveway and had done a lap round the block and was round the corner from home. got to an uphill section and a stop sign, this was at about 7.30am when EVERYONE was headed to work. i looked to the right, was clear so went to go...stalled.... restart and go....stalled..... restarted and go.....stalled..... restarted and this time started gettin movement, engine on the verge of stalling and i lost balance and dooof bike fell....in front of about 10cars filled with pissed off suits who had been held up by me......specially embarassing coz it was near my house so they'd know who i was too

OMG I nearly wet my pants. Can't give you any more bling, but OMG that was funny.

Good thing the 125 was on top. You'd have killed it if it had been underneath.

Dropped my bike into my mates car.... boy did I feel like a right twat....

On the same night he cracked the fairing on my other mates bike.

A catastrophic evening on all accounts.

Turned up to a KB ride at the usual BP

Pulled up with shrubbery on my right hand side, looking pretty damn cool

Took helmet off, leaned right to drop helmet on said shrubbery... kept bloody going...

McJim not only kindly hits the kill switch for me, but also lifts the RZ250 off me.

Teaching a friend of mine to drive a car ... learning to start off... easing the clutch out... **stall**
"OK - try again"... more revs, plenty in fact - ease the clutch out.... **stall**
"It's ok" says me, everyone stalls 3 times at first .... even a few more revs, ease the clutch out ultra slow .... **stall**

"ok - now take the handbrake off..."
