Yesterday, a friend of mine called me and invited me to a day long ride with a group he hangs out with. He told me that they would be about seven riders and some would have their wives/ girl friends ride along with them.
I own this 1995 custom fatboy in pristine condition that I had been wanting to take for a long ride for a while now, so I decide to invite my GF to come along. We left the rendez-vous point around 10:00 am instead of the intended 8:30 A.M
I was pissed out of my head for having to wait so long for people who obviously could not tell the difference between 8 and 10 . My friend ask me to relax and wait so for the sake of courtesy I did.
So finally we leave. We ride out together and as we are reaching a left turn this one rider in the group decides to take the turn side by side with me and nearly thows us off the road..... My girl automatically says to me:"WTF is wrong with this guy ?" I gave hin one of those looks to which he waved saying sorry dude, my bad..... I should have seen this as the bad sign it was... I think I did ,in fact but instead of turning around and going home ,I pressed on.....
So now I am riding on a 2 lane highway , doing about 45 mph behind the ride captain and his wife. As a safety measure I left about 50 ft between us just in case something goes wrong to allow for some emergency maneuvers . The guy behind me does the same and is followed by the dick who almost sent me fliying in the flower bed about 20 minutes before. Suddenly, the ride leader sees a pot hole on our track and raises his fist to signal it to us and slows down slightly to pass it as the thing was filled with dirt and did not necessitate any hard braking . I raised my fist to signal it to the guy behind me when suddenly out of no where, doing about 80 mph, comes dickhead from my right side !!! He hits my hadle bars and my right arm .... Needless to say that I immediately lost control of the bike and my girl the bike and I went for a 50' slide along the other side of the highway....
The idiot also lost control of his bike about 15' after the impact and went sliding for about 80' . I got up and ran to my girl who was holding her leg crying and sat her down on the side of the road. The fucking idiot was still laying flat on his stomach and was not moving.... I was hoping he was dead but the world would not be so lucky.... The other riders came to our aid and the guy who was riding behind me said :" man, you never had a chance.... This fucking guy passed me fliying from the left and as he reached you went back in and passed you from the right..."
If it were not for leather and helmets he would have killed us all. I came out out of this with a bad road rash on my knee , a badly bruised right tricep and a few cuts and bruises. My gun hoslter was completely desintegrated and litterally saved my ass.... My girl got realy bad cuts on her legs and knees and a badly sraped hand.
My beautiful bike got the worse of it. Exhaust, fenders,tank,handle bars, grips foot and hand controls..... All gone! Mother fucker got up and said:" my bad,man...." Only made me want to kill him more... He made all arrangements to have the bikes picked up and told me that he was ashamed of himself and insisted for covering all the damages. I still want to fucking kill him though....
