LOL - I made a point to do it every time I rode Lisa's old F4i (she had to lower it to be closer to flat footing it). Her 600RR has higher pegs so even though it's lowered as well, I've not ridden it enough to do so yet.

You jinxed me Particle! I was riding at Summit Point today and clipped my peg on the curbing in a left-hander, sending me into an immediate low-side. Fortunately when my bike hit the dirt, it flipped and smashed the right side up too so everything matches again.

aw crap man, that's not cool

You ok?

Yeah I'm ok, just a lot of bruising and a little sore. And the ego took a good hit.

I had just won the race school 4-lap mock race. Second place was over 20 seconds behind me and I had lapped traffic in sight about 1 turn ahead of me. I took the checkered and binned it in the only turn between the finish line and the paddock.

Effin'.

Sucked.

But it was kinda funny too. Can't help but laugh...

Too bad you weren't able to pass the slower riders in time... then they would have done all your laughing for you
