Flat Tire

I was one of those "guy with a flat tire on the side of the 405 freeway at 8:45AM". Yeah, it could be any freeway, anywhere USA. So much traffic. It was loud.

After all these years I never had a flat while riding. At 80mph, it just felt side-to-side squishy. I thought either I had a flat tire or my swingarm cleve blocks just decided to collapse instantly! Squishy sucks when you're grip-to-grip between cars though.
Maybe I would find a bag of money on the side of the freeway? Diamond ring? No. An old broken shock, cans, bottles and a bunch of cigarette butts. Who throws cigarette butts out the window into the dry brush? Why litter? I'm still not used to all the litter.
I was spending some time looking for treasures because help was already on the way. Brandon from H-D of Westminster picked me in their box van with a lift-gate. So eazy, breezy, Japaneezy! They were just 3 miles away.
The End.
