how I dropped mine

Big Wheel
Was a long hot day in the summer of 2012, I worked all day out in the heat. The boss said it would be a great ride home, I wasnt sure I was so "burnt out".
I got home safely, pulled in the garage and started to get off the Connie. Too late I realized, I never put down the side stand!!! The bike was already past the point of no return and it threw me off.
I hit the concrete and could only think of the bike. I looked over and the two empty cardboard boxes that my wife had been bugging me to recycle caught the Connie and acted as a crush zone lowering her safly to a stop.
A good reason not to recycle
Ride safe
Enjoy the ride and remember...

That's gotta be one of the very best excuses for not cleaning out the garage that I've ever heard - congratulations, Grey Wolf!  Glad to hear that neither you nor Connie was hurt.

And so it has now become my sad duty to confirm you as the 488th recipient of the uncoveted Connie Droppers Anonymous Award.  You have another tale to share around a Rally campfire.  My sincerest condolences!
