Well this weekend was quite interesting. Lee's mom and dad bought a little dirt bike. Its really cute and bright yellow. Lee finally convinced me to try to ride it by myself. I did really well as long as I was oging in a straight line.
I tried to go around the house and turn around and crashed!! I got back on and turned around in the cauldesac fine. I got back down to the parking pad by the house and tried again and fell again! This time the handle bar and the brake lever jammed into my knee leaving a HUGE pink, purple and blue bruise!
Needless to say I haven't messed to much with it since then!

That sounds like me with motorized toys
I once crashed my Aunt's go-kart into their creek and tried to run over their dog with a golf cart.... oh and I tried to climb a tree in an ATV - keep me away from anything with a motor!

Hope your bruise doesn't hurt to much!

Nice, what kind of dirtbike is it? My first time riding was on an IT200 (too much bike for a beginner!) and I wrecked it everywhich way possible. They are so fun

Luckily Lee's mom and dad were out of town when i was falling because his mom would have taken pics for sure. Maybe I will get a few of "the bruise and the bruiser" to post.

Its some cheap chinese 150.We got it for 500 buck brand new.
It look rather strange me sitting here in a skirt looking very professional waiting on customers and them asking "OMG what happened to your knee?!!!" Everyone in the office thinks my boyfriend beats me now!

I was back on as soo as we got the thing cramked back up. I will probably ride again this weekend but for the rest of the week I am steering clear of the beast!!! We got Lee's mom on it too. She was more scare to take off than to ride it. She sat with it idling and ready to go for 10 minutes before we made her go finally. She got to the end of the drive way and killed it and was pushing it back before anyone got to her to crank it again!!
