Oops!

So yesterday afternoon I was out and about on the bike, with the girlfriend on the back. We went to watch the Parlotones at Kirstenbosh, and afterwards popped in for a quick drink with friends.

In the old biking tradition I opted to take a shortcut down the sidewalk on my way out of the parking area, rather than struggling to reverse the bike out. Needless to say after a loud scratching noise I remembered that there is indeed an exhaust mounted underneath this bike.

Still feel like such an idiot, but fortunately it's just a little scrape and over time I'm sure there will be lots more where this one came from.
