Life is too short for drama or petty things, so laugh hard, love truly and forgive quickly. Live While You Are Alive. Forgive now those who made you cry. You might not get a second time.

Of Course it's dirty. It's hard to clean when the tires keep moving.

That sucks!  Hope he wasn't hurt.  Don't even want to think about what the bill will be for the damage to his motorcycle and to the boats.

Wow...guess he forgot how wide is butt was!   :ohwow:  At least he landed in the boat and the bike didn't land on top of him.  That would've added injury to insult.

I'm sure he was still pretty injured.

Motorcycle journalist crashes on dock, falls 10-plus feet into sailboatBy: Pete Thomas, GrindTV.com
A reporter for Moto Journal, a French publication, is becoming famous for all the wrong reasons. The motorcycle journalist, named Lolo, not only crashed his Yamaha while being videotaped during a waterfront ride, he tumbled off a dock and landed in a sailboat 10-15 feet below.

(I'm sure he was still pretty injured.)
Presumably, only his pride was injured because Moto Journal went public with the incident by posting the accompanying video, perhaps assuming (correctly) that it'd go viral.

Writes Asphalt and Rubber: "You have to give the folks at Moto Journal some credit for having some good humor and posting this video up to YouTube. No doubt, they will be the brunt of every other motorcycle publication's joke for the next week."

Adds Jalopnik: "Word to the wise: Watch those saddlebags--they can be like side-mounted grappling hooks, and the same thing could happen to you on your next precarious fence-less dock cruise."

Any way you look at it it sucks bad.
