I Hurt My Rude Bits, Again
My commute to work was made excellent the other day when I saw a motorcyclist try to ride on the pavement to avoid a traffic queue, lose control, fall off and land bollock-first on a concrete bollard. He was fine, eventually – but tell us your tales of the old blinding agony to the gentleman's or gentlewoman's area.

Raleigh Chopper
One christmas many years ago me and a few mates got new bikes, mine being a Raleigh Burner. One of our group had got other stuff that year but already had a Raleigh Chopper. After the initial honeymoon period where no-one was allowed to touch my bike and much persuasion from him we swapped bikes for a go. I was at the time pretty good on the BMX doing wheelies, bunnyhops etc.
So I decide to try and bunnyhop his bike, you can probably tell where this is going.... The tiny front wheel lands first, back end heads upwards and I got sliding down the seat, pods first into the gear shifter. Pain? Oh yes indeed, with the others looking on pissing themselves at my ineptitude to ride a crap bike.

Choppers were great as long as you didn't try to use them as a bike.

I had a striker.
I think, it was just a smaller Grifter without the 3 speed sturmery archer wasn't it?
Weighed a fucking ton either way.

I'm pretty certain we've had this row before.
Let's just skip to the bit where I win and we have angry make-up sex.
