Soldato
But after months of practice, I finally got my knee down today
Started with a slight hit this morning, leaving a mark smaller than a 5p, then I had a few more hits later in the day resulting in a mark just smaller than a 10p.
Went out a few hours later and the hits were making contact longer, I was then joined by a guy on a Gixxer thou, and we were both going around taking it in turns to lead before stopping for a chat – after he left I had full on knee drag resulting in this:
Lost the chicken strip on the right now, the tyre is chewing up nicely now too, you can certainly see that it’s a different compound form the rest (will grab some piccies if I can tomorrow).
Anyway, I know it’s not big, nor clever, and it may have been dangerous to do it on the road, but I didn’t do any huge speed. I also know it certainly doesn’t make me a better rider but it’s nice to have done it.
Scort.
