Asked a girl out once. That was risky.

I've ridden a bike assembled by Halfords.
I WORKED for Halfords
Quite an unnecessary risk- i could've just got a nice shelf stacking job next door in Sainsburys....Come to think of it, i used to commute there everyday on my Santa Cruz past several Pikey caravan sites

Riding back from town ages ago holding a 12" pizza in one hand and trying to jump off a curb. Just managed to land it safely, but if I'd messed it up, I'd have dropped the pizza and probably broken myself.

I once lost it on a gravely bend, fell about 40ft down a cliff, bouncing off rocks and sharp bushes all the way. got up at the bottom & was strangly fine. Lost a shoe though, which made the ride home uncomfortable.

Every day I ride approximately 250 mtrs of single lane highway in traffic, from the paper shop, with one hand steering and the other trying to reign in a mental doberman which must be about the most powerful doberman on earth, it's uphill I don't pedal, I have only the front brake which is on constantly until I reach the turn off into the bridle way which leads back home.
Generally I'm screaming at him to stop.
He doesn't.

Used to night-ride to the local forest then flip the front light (so the beam points in your face) and see who could make it the furthest before collecting a tree.

I feel you about the pizza. I used to routinely put a kebab on my aerobars on my road bike, on the way home from the pub. That worked fine but I met with disaster when I tried it with a large pizza. Straight over the bars on the roundabout with the IMAX outside Waterloo station, snapped one of the aerobars and had to clean bits of pizza off my bladed spokes too. No, I'm not making it up.

Descending the Grande Conche on a rented Orange 224, with frankly very poor descending skills (me, not the bike).

spending £15K in a year behind the wife's back. She thinks each bike cost about £400
Depends if you bought 37.5 bikes, or not, doesn't it?
