Default most embarrassing moment

Thought you guy`s might get a kick out of this.Three years ago at bike week(daytona)I pulled a real boner.We were staying in the Ocala area so we had a long ride back to the house if you know what I mean.We (wife and I )had a more than enjoyable afternoon at pub 44.On the way back( buzz-on) I was on the heritage and my wife was in tow with the suburban.Anyway,I needed to take a left turn off Ithink it was rt.4.Just no. of Leesburg.Anyway,I swayed my way into the left turn lane but unfortunately this turn lane was not the one I actually needed to be in.The signal light moved to the next intersection when I wasn`t looking.The problem is that the turn lanes are framed in with concrete curbing and pretty vegetation people call flowers.Well,at least the curbs were the 45 degree type.Air born I go for a ways and when I came down mulch and tulip tops went flying everywhere.Being the suave rider that I am I continued on to my turn and cruise to the driveway where we were staying.I get off the bike to see my wife laughing her *** off,and this happened ten minutes ago.!At least no-one got killed and the bike had received no after effects.I wish I could have seen it myself because I`m sure it must have been hilarious.I don`t do wheelies but I can`t say I don`t do jumps.I think they say "**** happens".Catch you later,Toby

Damn curbs, I've 'jumped' a few in my days also. Good story with a good ending luckily.
