Re: Joes minibike reunion

My first motorcycle accident was on on of those "Bonanza's" when I was 6. got whiskey throttle and wheelied into the side of my best friends neighbor's house while his mom was at work (we weren't supposed to be riding it). His mom and my parents weren't laughing at all. To this day those things give me a chuckle. Thanks for sharing!

How cool. The Honda trail 50 was the first motorbike I had ridden. I rode that thing about 20' square into a tree.
