Wild Motorcycle Tales

Here's a great story from John. Got your own story? Send it to me.

Chicken Caper

When I was in High School way back in the early '60s, I had a 175 Allstate. Back then motorcycles only had 2 speeds to me -- off or wide open. Of course that was only about 65 mph on the Allstate.

Riding along a country road one day, I topped a small rise in the road and found a flock of chickens covering the road. Too late to slow down so I plowed right through them. When I looked back, all I could see was a white cloud of chickens and feathers flying in the sky.

When I got to my friend's house he came out and said, "What's that on your muffler?" I looked down and found I must have caught one unfortunate hen with the footpeg and knocked an egg out of her. I had a perfectly scrambled egg splattered down my exhaust pipe. -- John
