A Crash

The biker checks in at the security counter.....gets his token......puts it in his pocket....gives the throttle a little twist and helps the bike into the curvy ramp...enters first basement......approaches the straight ramp to get to the second basement.....nice and easy......no aggressive moves.....gets to the ramp....moves down smoothly..reaches the second basement....one more floor to go......takes a sharp U after landing on second.....approaches another straight ramp to get to the final basement , the third one.....the one he calls ...devil's basement......turns into the ramp....no one in front ....nice and easy....smooth.......completes the ramp...makes a slight turn to get to the parking bay.....on finish of the turn suddenly a car comes in his vision....something happens.....brakes hard......the front wheel totally dies.......the front part of the two wheeler sways with an angle.....the bike makes a nose dive....the biker goes down with it.....lets the bike go...falls flat..eyes closed.....the bike drags itself a bit and collapses next to him........

he doesnt remember what was he thinking at that time......and the car that appeared in his vision was some 50 meters away from the point of crash.....may be he was not paying attention....may be he was lost in some other thoughts and did what a biker should never do, grabbing the front brakes....
he survived....
minor scratches here and there......
on the bike too!! damn!!
