    well cars was a true story of a little race car who decided to become a street legal motor vehicle. based on actual events, the little race car completed his journey and we all can learn alot about motorcycle riding and manuvering from this movie. it should be mandatory to show cars in every msf class.

    If you are going over the 8 mph threshold (approx), you are still countersteering when steering with your rear wheel. You countersteer to make the bike lean so you can slide the rear wheel out.

    Hell, there was a girl in my class that got the best score, but was the worst rider there. I was nervous just watching her try to balance the damn thing! I am hoping she didn't see any roads for a while after the class.

    Correct, you got me on that one.

    we were doing the big loop, where everyone just follows around...the girl in my class all of a sudden just went straight and didnt turn left, i watched her go toward the intstructors standing there, split them like uprights and then run directly into a chain link fence - all at about 12 mph- ive never seen anyone go over the handlebars so slowly! she popped back up before you could here her bones crunch (had to be embarressed).... she was ok.... so funny though - like a real time slow motion crash

    About an hour ago there was a wasp in my house, buzzing around by the windom. I grabbed some newspaper, rolled it up, and swat him. He was still alive and moving so I just picked him up and threw it in the toilet. Well, about 5 minutes ago I had to poop and I forgot about the wasp. Im sitting down, pooping. A few turbs came out. Then, I felt something on my ass..kind of thought it was the water running down my cheeks from the splash of the turb. Well, it started to go towards my asshole. I jumped up, and as I did so my cheeks smashed together traping the wasp inside my butt. Not a half a second after jumping up I felt the worse stinging in my life. The bastid shoved his thorn right into my soft, rose bud. Im screaming, jumping around and brushing off my anus. Its the worst pain ever. I got him off my ass, and the little fucker just flies up and into another room.

    So now, im standing up at the computer. Debating if I should go get my brother so he can put some creme on my swollen rectum. It sucks.

    I popped my animal pak in and chased it with boars blood, and then the unthinkable happened today, I was going to enter my gym through the main entrance when animal instinct took over. I knew something was wrong. It was my large torso, too wide to get through the door. I calmed myself down thinking, i'd better be able to get into the gym. I went back to my car, popped another animal pak, reved up my engine, and drove through the door. The crash cleared 4 more feet in the entrance, wide enough for future visits to the gym, because I know i'd only be getting bigger by the second. The animal pak was in full effect at this point, I lost control. I reved up the engine once more and ran over the people on the treadmills. All those doing curls I played bumper cars with, they didn't stand a chance. I saw my target, I drove to the squat rack. Parked my car on some pussy benching 400. I got out, and immediately loaded up 1000 lbs for warm ups. Not having enough 45 plates in the gym to suffice my ultimate animal needs, I went around collecting bodies, bodies ranging from 150 pound weaklings to 300 pound blobs. I stood them all in a line and threw an olympic bar like a javelin through their torsos, making a human shish-kebob weighing 3000 lbs. I threw it up over my head, took a deep breath into my belly of human flesh and blood, and repped for 20. Then I siphoned some of my cars gasoline out onto the floor beneath the 3000 pound human squat bar, lit it up and cooked myself a well balanced animal meal. Some might call it murder, I just call it instinct, animals can't be arrested for murder. Animal Pak, can you handle it?
