My First Shame Story...but Not My Last

[MarGinJoey]

It went like this-seems funny now but... read on

See creek, BIG creek, throttle down to enter, throttle up to exit...uhoh too much throttle, land on back left wheel, I land on my back, flat, but at least the ATV landed on 4 wheels (not neccasarily a good thing here though) as it rolled into a tree and bump-steered it, it then rolled down the hill on its wheels the whole time, into another creek about a foot deep in water, still running, (it, not me) , I'm flat on my back, no wind in lungs, friend in initial shock, followed by laughter, then concern over quad, thankfully I had the tow rope in quad (the one on dry land thankfully), and towed it out, end of story, not the end of injury however, my back is k i l l i n g me this morning, a little black n blue, and red, and scratched, oh, and my pride is pretty bruised too.. heheh.

Next week I tackle the whole friggin river! Stay tuned!

WHATEVER YOU DON"T TELL YOUR WIFE !!!!!!!! TRUST ME ON THIS ONE !!!! Tell her you dropped boxes on you or fell down the stairs or you got hit by a bike messenger in NYC.

Yo Marko glad I didn't go! Ha ha ha! JK. Actually, I do wish I went to return the favor you did for me when I had my shame story! Man oh man, I am so glad you are ok bro. In fact, I think I'll just give you a call now. Damn Yamaha doing that to ya..sheese Ger

[MarGinJoey]

Actually guys, it wasnt MY quad. My quad was being used by a good friend, and I was borrowing the neighbors 350 Bruin 2wd. I guess the extra light weight of 2wd made me flip up like that. As for "falling down stairs", forget it, yer married Chris?, U mean to tell me yer wife believes yer bullsh**?? Hahahah. Not mine, she can see thru me like a window!!

Anyway, I hit the neighbors Jacuzzi last night while watching the stars (phenomenon last nite- Venus-Mars-Jupiter- and Saturn all visible, not that I could tell where they were mind u) Anyway- Jacuzzi= aaahhhhhhhhhh feelin better already, but now I saw the weather, maybe its a good thing its supposed to rain all week. Give me time to heal, heh.

Ger, Andy said it was like watchin a movie in slow motion....... yeh, well, it didnt FEEL that way!

David, we need a smilie with a band-aid on.. heh.

Yes I'm married and yes she can see through my lies but I still deny it to her anyway. I will never admit to her that I got hurt on my quad.

Ok, so let me get this right Mark, Not only did you dent your friends truck but now you crashed your friends quad?
Don't ever ask to borrow anything from me
