Funniest/Dumbest prang...

And the Bloop's engine development was apparently shared with a three cylinder two stroke car / van engine with the same bore / stroke!

[Skub]

Dumb offs,I've had plenty. I attained a masters in dumbology in record time during my early years of 'learning'.

Even as the years went on I found I could still effortlessly channel my inner dumbass.

During my time aboard a Suzuki GS1000,I was negotiating a roundabout with Mrs.Skub on pillion and carrying a 5 litre tin of red masonry paint.(we didn't own a car) As usual I was dragging the undercarriage of the bike on the entry and the left exit. Unfortunately I hadn't planned on a bus leaving the stop and travelling at a more sedate pace. Oncoming traffic left no opportunity for an overtake,so brakes it had to be.

Around this time I fervently wished I'd fixed the rear caliper,as I still had a fair tilt on and it would have been nice to have a little help ,but I had put off the job and inevitably the front protested and let go. Down we went and of course the lid came off the tin of paint....

Mrs.Skub finished up lying on top of me,finding it all very amusing. The paint was everywhere. Us,the bike,the road and every vehicle passing by had it splattered up the sides. Major gore factor on the visuals.

It took me a looong time to clean the bike,our gear was binned and the paint stayed on the road until it was resurfaced,years later.

We had to go back for another tin of paint and while sitting at a junction,we were rear ended by a car load of Chinese folk,who all miraculously lost the ability to understand any English,due to shock no doubt.

Mrs.Skub,amateur dumbass that she was, found the second episode considerably less funny.
