closest I've come to dropping a scooter
« on: October 06, 2023, 05:59:54 PM »


Pulling into this parking lot to adjust my gear - mistook the street curb for one of the 2 entrances....being somewhat blinded by a following car's headlights in my mirrors.
Managed to stop just short of hitting & falling over the curb!
Area was darker than it appears here....

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.

And it’s that sort of daft thing that’s the undoing of many of us!
Regards & ride safe,
