...you hit a bump and your handlebars turn sideways! "No problem!", you think to yourself, "I have a handy dandy multi-tool!" The only problem is you seem to have lost it or left it at home. "I'll just walk" you think, until you realize it's really ****ing cold and you just want to get home to your warm bed. What do you do?
No hands all the way home b!tches!

Yeah, me either. I swapped the stem out yesterday and must not have tightened it down very well. I should know better than to ride a new setup without tools.

Thats why I always tighten my handlebars at 3pm 68 degrees in my house while I'm sober.
Glad you got home.

I usally have wiped out trying epic skids when that happens. Forcing it back with the knee works. Too many hills for no handed. I have a cresant wrench in ny back pocket at all times now

If you can't figure it out, don't encounter the police. Drunk on a bike, the ride they take you on; will not be towards home.

You ride home anyway, thinking you may not be that drunk; within a block, you clip a side-view mirror with your elbow; wipe out; notice flashing lights behind you; get up, ride away quickly; wipe out again, this time ****ing up a car; realize the lights are an ambulance and not cops; get into ambulance with bike, apologize profusely for being an idiot; get fixed up; go home.
Oh wait, that was me.

as you know this was entirely self-inflicted
part of me thinks you should have suffered a little more
for your own good and all

-10 for not riding a wheelie home while spinning your bars.
