A beer I really didn't want...

[TOTO]

I got hit by a frozen fish trown from the 9th floor of the block while we were playing soccer. That was back in my country. Trat would probably explain my weird behaviour. Not that I'm making excuses or something.

Oh badger I have that spare identical to yours mirror. I dont need it so I can bring it to NASS on wednesday for you brother.

Thats fuckin terrible, a real pity the whole five of you didnt catch up with the little arseholes. would have been deserving of their behaviour to have the fuckin shit beaten out of them. Glad I havent had that happen to me. Maybe one day youll see the van again and recognize it

Once you are on a bigger noisier bike they tend not to fuck wit joo then.

Erm... Dont get much bigger than me sitting atop a 900
it just amazed me that they saw a line of bikes, and decided to throw it at the second one in line...

So what sort of beer was it?

Wreaked of cheap domestic shit, much like the folk who threw it i suspect...

Consider yourself bloody lucky it didn't put a massive dent in your tank, stuck under the mudguard or hit your head!
Of all places, other than the obvious nowhere, I'd say the mirror would be the best place for it to hit!
200k beers don't stop badgers!
Scary

Indeed... On retrospect, if it hadnt have hit the mirror, trajectory would have put it somewhere between chest and goolies... Would not have been pretty... Even after all the energy absorbed in smashing up the mirror and twisting everything attached, it still bloody hurt my arm, and is a touch swollen today where it hit. Didnt bruise up though luckily.

Sweet, that'd be great mate!

Well it smelt like fish... but it tasted like chicken for some odd reason...

[Hitcher]

The type of beer still hasn't been revealed. This is important information in deciding the severity of this alleged crime.

[Badger8]

The can was never recovered. You can drop by and lick my leathers clean for a taste test if you're really keen

chances are they were just aiming for "a bike" with no specific rider in mind... given the speeds involved, it would have been hard to deliberately hit a certain rider. i bet if you set up the exact same scenario, you couldnt replicate the beer cans impact point.

That sucks mate, hope they get what`s coming to them. Glad your`e ok.

It can`t have been good beer( no-one throws good beer away).

Yeah, it would have just been "aim for the general area of one of them bike things", but more the point they flung it near the front of a bunch of bikes. Did they think i wouldnt mind, and my compadres wouldnt take offence at such an act toward a fellow biker and come back for a chat?

[caseye]

Glad you are Ok and that, that wasn't a glass bottle instead of a can.
The mentality of some drivers/passengers these days is questionable to say the least.Shame your mates didn't catch up with the barstards and got their number, or better still followed them home.Wonder how they'd like a visit from a couple of hundred KB'ers in the middle of the night.

ffs whats this world gonna throw at us next

chances are they did, hence why they likely floored it as soon as they saw you pull over. still glad it wasnt much, much worse.

[Brownstoo]

Yeah, there's some really shit people round these days. I've had eggs, emtpy beer cans, and water balloons chucked at me (in my car that is).
Only thing I've hit on my bike is a big ass mofo hawk thingy, which flew up from its roadkill in front of me and decided the best escape route was directly through my chest.
That fucking hurt, and only on my second decent ride ever.

hang em high
