Title: Viva la DMF Post by: CharliesAngel on May 06, 2008, 03:01:39 PM Hey there - just checking in...
This is very cool Lumbergh, et al!!! So before I signed up here with the DMF, I was having a pretty bad morning...couldn't start my bike this morning, then couldn't roll it back into my garage due to the slope of my sidewalk, then it fell over (*sigh*...DQ...I know!!! pu::)... but got the bike started after talking to a friend, registered here, and life is good again! ;D Name: Stephenie (Charlie) Location: San Francisco Bike(s) (if any): Monster 620 (sold), 900SS How long you've been riding: hmmm, 7 months now? Anything else you'd like to share: I've always wanted a nickname and the whole "handle" thing got me thinking that this is my one chance to create one...some would think that's pretty pathetic but I'll admit it, I've led a sheltered life... :'( so yeah, my middle name is Charlotte... hence Charlie...

I can paddle it around on it, and I feel that more secure. So I can't roll it when I'm off it to save my life.

I was on a slight hill and I was trying with all my might to "paddle" it backwards even with 1/2 my feet on the ground...not exactly something I can do easily on a 400+lbs. bike...I should have tried facing the bike and pushing it...oh well...live and learn... |
