Jumped on a friend's elite to do some wheelies, first thing I notice is how bad the brakes are.
Wheelie it past the house, 12-oclock it and jump off to save it (I did).

Rode to the top of the street and actually stopped to try adjust the rear brake, but the whole cable was spinning instead of the nut so I had to give up. Turned around, wheelied down the street, 12-oclocked it a bit faster than the first time, jumped off and smashed my face into the asphalt.

Lessons learned:
Don't ride without a helmet (I usually do, but this was at a friends house and I didn't have mine with me).
Don't get crazy on unfamiliar bikes.
Don't try to address a safety issue, and then keep riding when you couldn't fix it :P
