Now, this must be the weirdest thing happen to me in a while.
Bikes to attract all kinds of people.
Here I am, having trouble with my MO tire. Tire is leaking air, so I decide to take a ride on my bike to a local Wally World in south Austin. it is about 12:30am by the time I get there. I park the bike right by the store on side. Go get the stuff I need and get back to the bike. Just as I start gearing back up, I hear someone start screaming "I want that f...ing bike man".
So I turn around and here is this group of maybe 18 year olds. They all look at me and most of them just head into the store. With the exception of one of them. He is the one that was screaming the stuff. So he comes up, very cocky expression on his face. He says, hey man, I used to race an R6 on the local circuit. Why dont you let me have a ride on this bike and I will let you hold onto the keys to my lexus.
I already had all my gear on, so I pull the visor up and say: Yeah, that was a good joke man.
To that he says: No really, I raced, and I bet I can beat your ass any time. What is this bike...what have you done to it.
So I tell him in about 5 seconds a few things....pc3 exhaust, custom map, blah blah. To this he says: Is that all?
So I say man, these bikes have more balls than anyone can handle. he says, BULL SHIT MAN, BULL SHIT.
Then he says again, I want to race you man, right now man. Lets go. I will kick your ass on a bike.
I kind of started laughing to myself but he heard it and got a sour look on his face. I just said: why dont you go back to that wal mart my friend.
He says come on man, you scared? So I say, I will not race you.
To that he says, come on man, why not. Then I said I dont race squids. He kind of stopped talking then. I took off and he just kept standing there for about 20 seconds afterwards. Not sure if he was mentally challenged but nonetheless it was a funny and an original occurrence.
Just thought I would share it. Thanks.
