Default 2 Things I learned over the weekend...

#1 - This has never happened so I never paid attention to the possibility, I put my wallet/card holder in my "trunk" space of my Gixxer... And then spent most of the rest of the predawn hours in my car, retracing my path on my bike looking for it. Only to finally find it the next morning literally balancing on the swing arm. Ok, ok.. I know that was totally dumb on my part, but I really never thought about those spaces in the tail that literally open out to thin air. Lesson learned.

#2 - If it calls for rain, I don't care HOW clear it looks, don't ride unless you want to ride in the rain. I spent over an hour sitting under a gas station, only to finally suck it up and ride in the rain. NOT fun!
