Default Your most embarrassing moment?

With bikes or without....I just had mine....

I really had to go to the can in my building, a one holer, so I banged on the door and rushed in and started doing my business. I took a big sigh while I was standing there as it really was an emergency...then I kinda felt like somebody was behind me! I look around and there is an electrician standing there two feet away, with some wires hanging out of the ceiling. He's staring at me. He says, "You knocked and I yelled, 'What?'

I say, "I never heard you! I was in too much of a rush!" I laugh and say sorry and give it a shake, wash my hands and escape.

The most embarrassing moment in my life for sure.



On my bike, one time I was pulling into a restaurant when I was first learning to ride and saw all these people sitting outside eating on the terrace. Parking was right beside them all and I was thinking I looked really cool pulling up on my bike. I went a bit too slow when I turned the bar and it stalled and went over before I could grab it! I jumped off, lifted it up, got it going and pulled right back out again. Never gone back to that friggin' restaurant since.


Anybody top those two??
