    tire burn

    The first time I rode a motorized 2-wheeled vehicle was a Briggs & Stratton powered minibike when I was 5. Totally didn't listen to my dad when he explained how to slow down--all I cared to know was that if I twisted the right grip back, I would go faster. So I did, right into a fence. The throttle got pinned wide open into the ground, my right leg somehow ended up between the frame and the rear wheel. My whole leg looked like the ARM in the picture above. Gauze and plenty of salve, I tellz ya.

    Its an arm. No doubt.

    My guess is this didn't happen on a mountain bike. There had to be some sort of power to the wheel while the arm was getting rubbed away.

    Seriously, let's get the story. Either that, or we start a running thread of "I got this when" stories where we just make up fake stories to match various injuries/malfunctions.

    I'm thinking Kenda of some sort and his gf/wife did that to him to make sure he never bought another bike part again without getting permission.

    Wow die hards seriously want to know.
    Well wait no longer peeps!! Here's a typical patented bwolmarans move:
    Riding next to my buddy at about 20mph, laughing about something, at night, no lights, front wheel into rut, next thing I know I'm down and my arm is slapped over his rear tire and sucked in. It hurt so bad I thought the rotor had cut it like in that pick above! Tire was a Minion all prize money checks are already in the mail, yo!

    Finally, I can get some rest. That's a pretty intense sounding wreck. Now, I'm wondering about that other slice picture.
