and
I found my old photos for the city i took when i hit a pot hole on my motorcycle at the time so i threw them up on flickr. I was riding (at the time) a 2003 HD Sportster 883C doing about, 30ish mph. The pot hole was cause by some job they where doing and they just left it there uncovered and i did not see it (road was shaded so everything just looked black). I was actually able to keep the bike up and ROAD HOME. At the time did not notice anything but that the bike started to wander like a b*tch at speed on the way home. City ended up paying me for new rims and tires front and back and i took the money and got some nice aftermarket rims. too bad a year after that i got in an accident with a dog that totaled the bike and the rims =(
Since i know we have a few riders on the forum, let this be a lession learned about pot holes, stay away! Then agian, in SF, that is pretty hard to do.
