Hmm, broke the mellow...

Went on a ride today with some friends, one of which is new to riding (1 week experience, had to go pick her up and escort her to the ride due to lack of freeway experience). Met up with some other buddies along the way, but one felt the need to pull a wheelie next to the noobie rider. Lucky for him, a truck got between the lot of us so I couldn't

I've never even seen you get mad like that! But it seems like it was mostly justified - how did she react when he pulled the wheelie?

Glad you guys got it all worked out regardless, and I'm glad you had fun this weekend!

It wasn't quite seething anger, but I was mad enough to yell (which is still saying something)! Went something like this:

"Cory! Hey, Cory! What the FUCK was that back there?"
"Huh? What?"
"That wheelie back there, right next to the new rider. What the fuck did you think you were doing?! That's NOT cool. Knock it off, and don't let me see that shit again."

I talked to her at the bar and she said she was kind of expecting it given he's been hanging out with Ambrose (the 22 year old wanna-be stunter who has crashed every 2 months for the last 8). Still, not going to let a rank-amateur rider impose on a rider that can't compensate for his stupidity and won't speak up. That gets dangerous for everyone in a hurry and I don't want to deal with any more friends in ICUs. Yay for short-fuse issues. LMAO. But, I'm glad it worked out too. Hopefully I'll see him at bike night tonight and can make sure it's really worked out.
