oh man… i just got attacked, and almost got my go-ped stolen.

so heres how it happened. I went out to ride my go-ped like i do almost every day, and as I was riding it on a big street by my house… a car about 50 yrds away from me drives onto the side walk on which i was riding… i saw 4 guys in there (about 18 -20 ) years old, and one guy gets out and starts running at me! i realize he is trying to steal my go-ped or kidnap me, so i turn around and start my go-ped, and as i am starting it, the car drives off the sidewalk, and back on the rode, and drives on the sidewalk about 15 feet away from me, so i just turn, turns the road, (fortuneately there weren’t any other cars on the road), and start riding on the other side of the rode, and they just speed by me and i return hope shaking from the experience.

now i know to start carrying a pocket knife with me, but even if i did have i pocket knife, i wouldn’r have been able to use, it was all jsut so fast…

man… i’m still shaken up from it.

ahh cool. i am getting a preformace kit for mine, i dont know when though.

someone just died in soConn from not wearing a helmet and hitting a car (which from what i hear was at the fault of himself not the driver) so they are thinking of making them illigal w/o a license which is stupid becasue so many have been sold, it was his falt, and this is the only accident! i live in a neighborhood so i will still ride but i cant have fun and go around town untill i know a bit more about what is going on ☹

don’t bring a knife to a gun fight…

in other words, don’t bring a knife, they will just take it from you, and end up using it on you…

you did the right thing, just get away…

He did do the right thing, but carrying a knife is not such a bad thing.

You just never know. Plus they did charge him. I am willing to bet if he buried that bad larry into into the dudes arm or leg they would bolt.

and never even attempt to steal some dudes shizzle again.

If you guys want an example of why sooping up Mopends and Go-pads is bad… come to hawaii

Weekly the cops are peeling some stupid teenagers off the sidewalks for sooping up their engines…

Thanks Digital Pimp,  
Some people never learn respect…

Apart from enlgish not being my first or even second language, the random forum is a relaxed atmosphere, and no one cares about spelling mistakes.
