Oh poor flibble.

I just went out on my lunch break and I got a bit caught out. There is a set of traffic lights before I get to my office on the A4. So, as usual I gave it a handful away from the lights. Nothing much used to happen on the old Hornet bar a lot of noise and some light bars. This time though I got to about 6k and the front came right up. Scared the life out of me. It was a good few feet in the air before I panicked and realised I had to negotiate a turn into the office. Down comes the front, gently as well, and on come the brakes. end up skidding into the car park (just). Then I realised that half my team, inlcuding manager, director and his boss are standing there smoking. Oh dear. Oh well, they thought I was a hooligan anyway. Hey Ape, my 1st proper wheelie, are you proud?!

A proper wheelie is done under control and full knowledge. What you experienced was a "oh f***, jeez that was actually quite cool, I'll pretend I meant to do that" moment.

But good effort non the less.

It is wise to armour up for the next one, I think I need to judging by the bruises and scratches! Maybe we can have wheelie bin races....

Congrats on the wheelie Dan. Now to do it on purpose
