Zapfic Monday - Slippery When Wet

This week's Zapfic contest in the Freewriters community is the last Monday of the month, and the prompt is "Slippery"

Joe bought himself a GSXR1000. It was his pride and joy.

But he found out the hard way just how slippery diesel spills can be after it’s rained. He went one way, his GSXR went the other.

Gravel rash hurts like hell, and takes ages to heal up.

Yay, I hit exactly 240 characters 😁

For any of my friends (or anyone else, for that matter !) who reads this and fancies giving it a try, it's really fun and thought provoking. The rules are really simple;

• The Freewriters Community has a Zapfic post with a writing prompt every Monday (up to 240 character posts) and Friday (exactly 50 word posts)
• Your response must be posted within 3 days in the Freewriters Community.
• Please post a link to your entry in the comments section of the prompt post
• Please use #freewritehouse and #zapfic tags.
• The important one - YOU MUST use a word/character counter (if you search for word counter on the internet or in your phone's app store you will get a big choice!) wordcounter.net and include a screenshot. Entries without a screenshot will NOT be valid.
• Please use the prompt provided as you see fit (use your imagination)
• Try to tell a complete story if you can!
• The story should only be up to 240 characters long (including spaces, punctuation etc).
