"Hey, Moi!"

Last Friday, the 20th August 2010.
I fell to tarred ground in front of my dad's shop.
Injured my right knee...
Few minutes before the fall, I was fear to ride on another motorcycle (belongs to Ms.Z), not the one I rode on the day I learned how to ride, so, not used to the height and handle (speed). Out of my natural strength of turning the handle, I sped (turned to almost maximum) which I shouldn't in the beginning, when I already put on gear one. I have forgotten to test the speed by putting on natural gear at the same time turning the handle, before going for ride on gear one. Just a second, after I sped, she yelled, "Hey, Moi!" I was shocked, and pressed the hand brake, and it stopped right in front of my dad's shop, the motorcycle have not even move an inch. It was okay at that second, until I tried to get down from the motor, and I lost balance, so myself fell and the motor slammed on my right leg. Asking for help, then Ms.Z came and brought up her motorcycle, and took my helmet after I escaped my right leg (pulling out from her bike which was on top of my leg) from her motorcycle. Ms.Z stayed to carry her motorcycle, and mechanic of my dad's shop came and help, tested the motorcycle. It was okay. I was imagining, "Inside  my knee should bleeding terribly." However, it just started bleeding when I open up my jeans (no blood stain when see from outside, the jeans didn't even torn, that's the amazing thing about wearing jeans). Then actually my knee started bleeding. What's next? I took the first aid box and cleaned my wound using Dettol (a lot of dirts came out from the wound), then applied 'yellow-cream' and bandaged.    

Then we discussed, what happened and shared each other's thought.
In Ms.Z perspective, "She feared that I turned to the maximum speed and eventually banged to the lorry, which is parked nearby my starting place." (Good that I didn't bang the lorry)

In my opinion, "I was shocked by her scream, not realizing that I was actually turning/pressing to the maximum speed." (Relieved that I stopped and not going out to main road, else unexpected thing such as accident may happen)

One day before it happened.
I learned the way of riding motorcycle, taught by my colleague (Ms.Z), I passed the trials of riding up and down hill the third time of total three times. Satisfied and Ms. Z gave good comment.:)

Lesson to learn: Do ride without licence, opps... :p Should be don't ride without licence... :)
