Default Interesting Ride on the way to work.....

So im riding to work this morning & im about 20-30 ft behind a Moped, Well, the moped hits a pump & its tour pack flies in the air, im Like OH CHIT! I could tell it wass gonna hit the ground as I got to it, but even fully on the brakes I knew id have to swerve so I did to the right & it went left, I ran up on the kid & told him to pull over, he did, I told him what happened, & he seemed pissed (Id be too) His Tour PAck damn near exploded on impact & all his tuff was all over the road I felt bad for the kid but I had to go to work& was running late, so i didnt have time to help him clean his stuff up. Im really GLAD I avoided it, If id of hit it I may of went down & I for sure wouldve had damage to the bike, Kinda woke me up a bit though lol

Tour pak(? ) flies off and hits road and shatters..
Brings "new" meaning to the term, "SCOOTER TRASH"
Nothing like load testing the 'ticker' on the way to work, huh, Gismo?
Good 'post' for all the 'tail gaters' out there.

you should have helped him pick up all his stuff and then put his stuff, his moped and him in your tour pak and dropped him off at his destination before anything else fell off his bike.
