Maz......I think your first wife and my first wife bowl together.

I was home from college. I had saved up enuff cash for a new bike. I bought a 2 yearold GSX-R suzuki. Fast, sleek gorgeous. Well, I came home from work one saturday and ran in the house to take a shower. After my washing, my father,Cyclops Sr., informed me that a few of his die-hard Harley friends were on their way over and it would be smart to remove my "hiroshima-****" from the driveway.
I didnt bother getting dressed per-se, I just doned a pair of shorts and hopped on the bike. Sitting sidesaddle, bare-foot shirtless, I fires up 1100 cc'c of raw power and rocked it forward off the stand. I rode it down the hill into the back yard and turned into the shed where I parked my machine.

Unbeknownst to me, Cyclops Sr. had been doing gardening that morning. He is also widely known for leaving his rake with the tines pointed up. I was doing 20mph-ish when the front wheel hit the rake. I didnt really"see" the rake as much as I heard it. Its an airy "whooshhh" as the handle approaches the sound barrier.
Bright flash of light....ears ringging.
When I came to, I was laying on the still running( and in gear) motorcycle, hot engine case, spinning chain and sprockets.Fairing blown into 6 pieces, broken knuckles and nose.
Ya know, he actually had the gumption to ask me why I threw the rake at the swimmingpool!!!
