Default OMG TFF

For those that don't know the second acronym, it's "Too ******* Funny"

I recently went out to grab lunch, and put my Dainese jacket on to leave. Walking up the road, I saw a scooter coming a little fast up the hill. Being the guy I am, and it's obvious that I'm a biker, I gave a cheery wave. Scooter boy waved back, mid corner

Long story short, after I controlled my giggling I told him that he really ought to invest in some decent gear, maybe it wouldn't hurt so much next time he fell off mid corner.

I also left my details with him, just in case. But he was the sole party involved in the little dispute with tarmac, so I dont think much will come of it.

Still giggling like a school girl, and I know I shouldn't, but it was hilarious!

You won't be laughing when he sues you for being a distraction!!!

Incredibly funny though "I'll be cool and just do one handed cornering while waving ba..." crash.

If he sues thats fine, my story might just tell how he was coming too fast for the road, and I was supprised he even saw me, and he wasn't wearing the right gear etc etc.

Let the lawyers sort it out... if someone can get sued for being friendly & waving in the street, theres something very wrong with the world.

Still giggling btw.

You forgot, he wasn't in full control of his vehicle as he was waving back.

I agree suing people when it's just plain stupidity is wrong. "I didn't realise coffee was hot" WTF??

*rant over*

Just the thought of that has sent me into giggle fits again.

I've seen bikers wave with one hand off the bars whilst mid corner before, but never seen one hit the deck 'till now
