    Please direct....

    Fellow Feejers: I was leaning through a left hand turn in an intersection...back wheel cut loose and me and the feej spilled across the pavement. I'm perfectly fine. Feej came through amazingly well, but it pointed up the need for those side guards that I have heard about. Can you direct me to...
