PA aint got no mountains to screw up on. Nothing truly big that wont put you in the ditch now and then...
Are we seeing drivers so stupid they need a mountain endorsement?

I remember ages ago Dad hauling melons in an end dump with an old cabover Transtar. The ones that "fell off" when he stopped by the house were the only pay we got as the company had gone tits up by the time he got back.

Couple years ago there was an epic thread on a Ducati message board about the hazards of water melon.
Went down on a watermelon...
So here's my dilemna- I was doing about 5 mph when I rode over a watermelon that had been smashed on the road and run over a few times in front of JC penny's. Now here's the issue...it was 7pm and the watermelon was flat on the pavement, I couldn't even see it and it had been there for about a day because the previous day I had seen where someone had thrown it down because it was in large clumps at the time.... The bike's not bad but the left side has been thrashed the front axle is bent a little bit, the swingarm is scrathed and bent where the rear peg is and the gas tank has a small ding in it....I went home after and called the police after I got the manager's name and told her about the accident but the police could have cared less and didn't even show up... So I went back to the scene today and took pictures and luckily even though i informed the management at JC penny's the watermellon bits were still there so i'm hoping I can take them to small claims court for diligence...anyone out there a lawyer...is this an available option.
Oh...and I just put my half termiginoni system on about 4 hours prior and it sounded great....life sucks..Dave_in_AZ Thanks this. -
Ok these are examples of someone that has no watermelon endorsement & myself that knows how to safely transport melons.
