Re:Coal Mine Cruiser Classic 2003 in pennsylvania
Well ...fuck...Got my overnight pass was heading up there friday after work and thats when it all went bad. I was on Rt 61 just northwest of Reading....in the left lane when some asshole in front of me stomps on the brakes. I am on the drums hard...no room in the right lane...still approaching the rear of the assholes car....hmmm nobody coming in the opposite direction so I go to the left...still hard on the binders. Well, it had a smallish concrete hump that was just high enough in combination with the extreme braking to well flip me. I landed on the pass side...banged my head to the tune of 9/10 stiches...but didn't hit the SOB. Thank God I had the roll cage in...and thanks to UP And Over Innovations in Aston for re-working all the welds...it performed like a champ. I'm OK and the Ingot is down in the garage...insurance hasn't called back yet but given a little time and $$$ it will be good as new. Need new windshield (everything) and right front fender....other than that the roll cage needs some attention and some other straightening etc...
Hope all others had fun (or are having fun still).
Lesson learned....next time put the front end w/winch into the back end of the bastards....you know they fucking took off after they caused me to flip. Thought about posting pics ...but maybe not. >:( >:( >:(
