I lost!!

On our third little run with our new Montana I got into an argument with a four foot concrete pillar at the rear of a Mobile gas station. My wife said I couldn’t get around it – I said I could. As I glanced at a truck parked on the other side, the pillar said “you lose!”, Anyone else ever do a stupid trick like that? I began pulling RVs ten years ago.
I used to ride motorcycle and remember an old Harley rider telling me that eventually you’ll either scrape skin or break bones if you ride long enough. I got off before either happened. I wonder if the same logic holds true with dents and scratches for RV people? Anyone else up for the Dummy Award?

I guess we've been lucky and have not yet crashed the Montana into anything bigger than a curb. Hope I didn't just jinx myself. I know someday it's going to happen, though.

I also got off the bikes before burning skin or breaking bones. Right after being in the middle of a freeway pileup in Portland, OR, and finding myself at a stop with vehicles on four sides of me no more than three feet away. My ship was in overhaul in Portland. I took leave, rode it 1100 miles miles straight through to San Diego, where Vicki was, and traded it for a car.
