Default I can’t believe I just….

curb rashed a rear wheel!

I haven’t done that in 15 years but as soon as I get expensive wheels, BAM!

Someone please come over and beat me to a pulp with the damaged wheel.

Well I guess it can be fixed. I was just looking forward to the Hooters GTG with my new shoes in good condition.

Yesterday I was backing into my parking space in front of my garage at my apartment and a curb came out of no where.... I swear it was never there.. Needless to say, the back end flew up in the air, I said, awwww f--- it, and kept going.. I managed to scrape the front wheel as well. Both got a little paint transfer since it was a fire lane, nice red color, and it was a good "off roading" time....



























I forgot to mention it was in my wife's car... SHHHHHHH!!!!!!! or else....
