What the.....?


So I was coming home from my parents house one afternoon and I saw something that just stunned me... OK it really freaked me out!
I came around a corner over by Timpanogas High School and saw a large man that appeared to be biking in the nude. Of course he wasn't but the outfit he was wearing didn't do him justice. No shirt, very tight blue biking shorts, sunglasses, ipod strapped under his "Chest" and no helmet. As I turned the corner this man, probably in his late 40's, suddenly flipped off his bike and landed in the rode. I quickly pulled over and rolled my window down to see if he was alright, this is what happened...
Me... are you all right?
Biker.... AAAGHAAAGH! It hurts oh it hurts.... AAGGHHH, my shoulder, oh, the pain!!!
This freaked me out so I told the kids to stay in the car as I proceeded to cross the street and see if he was OK.
Me... are you OK?
Biker ( now in the fetal position, rocking back and forth)..... UUUGHHH!! No it hurts, oh man, *#@!&%$?, AAAGGHH!
Me... can you get up?
I proceded to lift his bike out of the way...
Biker... I think I can, UUGGHH!! My shoulder...
This man was very dramatic, he then told me this was his first accident ever. If his mom were around and he had a blanky I think he would have been just fine.
Me.. is there some one I can call to help you?
Biker... no, I just started my ride, my wife isn't home. Man..... my shoulder!
Me.. can you move it? Do you think you dislocated it?
Biker... I don't know what that feels like!
(Oh, ya first accident ever)
Anyways long story short my sweetheart of a dad came and saved the day by giving this poor, beat up, first time crashing, shoulder pain, aaaaggghhh, rolling broken man a ride home.
But before my dad showed up in his truck me and the biker had this coinversation..
Biker... did you see it happen?
Me... yes!
Biker... all of it?
Me... yes!
(awkard silence..)
Biker... I don't ussually dress this way... but it was such a nice day I wanted to get some sun..I'm so imbarrassed!
(another awkard silent moment, I think we both were feeling the pain by now..
you see... how do I put this nicely.... My new friend seem to have lost alot of weight, enough that he could have used a "Manzier", he had man boobs)
Me.. Oh you'll laugh about this tomorrow.... (a little laugh, trying to avoid looking)
Biker... no I don't think I will.
To my biker friend where ever you might be... I'm sorry I had to witness the" first time ever crash" and watch a 40 something year old man cry. On a possitive note, It did bring alot of excitement and a little laughter to my day.. at your expense. I thank you for being ever so humble and swallowing your pride to let a girl and her dad help you home. My kids thank you for putting on a darn good show!

I'm still laughing about it! I love the way you captured it in writing... though hearing about it over the phone gave the story a few great sound effects. "Poor Guy!" :0
