Whiskey Throttle

[Rodehard]

When's the last time you did that, and how'd it go?

For me, was riding the dirtbikes around our little moto track with my 11yr old (I was on the EXC, he was on his CRF100).  I hit one of the jumps, juiced the throttle a little more than usual - but was a gear lower than I thought.  oops.  I shot straight up, landed vertically on the rear wheel body position all out of wack, the front slapped down and whiskey throttle wheelie ensued.  I came off the back of the bike and broke my tailbone.  The boy rides up while I'm laying in the dirt - "you ok dad?" - yep.  "that was awesome - your legs where pointing up in the air and you slid on your butt for 10 feet!"

Yeah.  That took over a month before it quit hurting to sit down.

Never too old to be stupid
