A fantastic final paper of your semester, the much awaited end of exam right in front of you, too excited to kick start your bike, too careless to notice the side stand LED glowing and you are just set to vroom… you must have got it right by now, this guy ought to taste some mud. Ah… How embarrassing to tell that I had my first fall off my so beloved Pulsar 150 today. And you do know how :(. Well it turns out to be even more embarrassing when you havnt had a fall after the first time you learnt to ride your bicycle when you were a kid.
All through the few seconds I and my friend skidded with the bike that ripped off my favourite new trousers…I was only thinking of what part of my bike was getting damaged. Once the trio came to a halt all lying on the road above eachother, I looked back to see my rear view mirror broken into infinite pieces. Got up, lifted my bike and then sat down staring at an all the more damaged bike, wondering how the hell did it happen to me! I thought I was a good rider. :oops:
Couldn’t just let it go, with “Goofups do happen sometimes”. Seriously bruised with just about to bleed wounds crying for a dressing and the ignominy of falling in front of many of my college mates, it kinda gets in your head. Ask my friends who were around and helped me with some attention. My friend Rajat was pillion riding… thank god he didn’t have much to cry about, just a small cut. But I still did have to say a sorry to him. My mistake afterall (Does bolding this text help a little in penance?). Another friend surely found all this funny, got pics of us both, and I shamelessly posed. I can’t guess it wrong, these surely will be fillers for my college magazine. Arrgggghhhh!
Had an anti-tetanus injection done. I have not had any injections since when I was a kid, so they have always remained in the darker memories of my childhood. Luckily this one wasn’t more painful than a mosquito bite. But I still did confirm it with the nurse before she proceeded with it. Lol!
Got back home and had to take a verbal battering from my parents. It wasn’t supposed to get better. Can’t lie, that I am feeling much better now, though I did get up all with excitement after the fall(just to tell the others, that I am hell fine!). With peeled off skin, swollen wounds and bones crying “you hit me”…I have made a resolution to ride safe and sound heretofore. I wonder if the bruised biker in me wants to beat that. But don’t want to loose more blood and bones either. ;)
My sis has these kinda small little things to get me happy. First bike fall, and she was all set in a party mood. Hehe… just ordered a Domino’s Pizza. And what is playing on my mind right now… is that the delivery boy comes safe and sound and in no hurry to reach in time… something rings in your head??? (30mins nahin to free…. ;))
Ting Dong…. :( (Bah! In 28mins 30 secs and now me a 720 bucks poorer bruised Aseem)

Hehe, when i fell off my pulsar first time , i was checking how much the bike got damaged, was glad to see just a broken indicator and few scratches on the leg guard , but no major damage that would be a permanent ugly mark on my bike :D . Few bleeding scratches on my body too but I knew they will wear off after some time.

I just met with one of very similar incident today, didn’t have a fall though, but got my right mirror cracked! hell! its not any different than getting bruised urself! Its my first ever bike and I am learning on it…but later I felt better thinking tht it was only the mirror, and I had a good lesson to learn….
