The last time I rode a bike I borrowed my cousins Yamaha 500. It was real slippery and I lost control down shifting. I went over the handle bards, got some nasty road rash and never rode a full size bike again.
I did rent a dirt bike in Aruba, it was a 125 I think. I found a sand pit and proceeded to beat the shit out of that bike. Found jumps and had a blast. I rode it down a couple of times with no injuries and returned with oil leaking and all scratched up. Of course I took the extra insurance.
That last ride was 1986. I had a bunch of customers and my manager who would park their bikes in front of my pool hall in riding season inn Rhode Island. They would shake the glass when they let loose.
