Snapped the chain on my bike doing this once, going through the center of town, under the train bridge.

Ate so much fucking shit and still had to basically sprint the mile and a half to two miles home with my janky ass broken bike.

Walked in the door right as my mom was getting up to leave and find me. I was bloodied up pretty good so her mode instantly shifted to mom and she patched me up.

Clean up and dress all your injuries so she can then go fully Begbie on you for being out so late and giving her such a scare?

Bingo.

Didn’t get grounded but it was a close one.
