 |
|
Riding last night down the main road, no plarked cars around, about 9.30pm but the roads lit ok, oncoming car stopped in the road indicating to turn right for them which means crossing my path, well only doing 30mph gets right up to the car and yep the fucker moves across my path, I hammered the brakes back locked and a little fishtail and I going to hit it, nope my front wheel misses the back bumper by must be less than an inch, I shat myself.
The bike had stalled leaving me in the middle of the main road while the car shot off down the road it had turned in to, my little bike can start in gear if you clutch it so I did and rode the clutch till I got the right gear cause I was in top, I shot of after them flashing my lights and sounding my horn, I managed to cut it off thanks to a parked car on the left and the window goes down, its a little old woman, I went kind of mental at her for nearly killing me and she said "I didnt see you" WTF Ive got a big white rickman fairing on the front that most think is a cop bike so no one pulls out in the day, well tonight I ordered a shit load of diamond refective tape thats going on my fairing and everywhere else I can stick it ( no jokes ) and the moral of the story is, keep your cool and dont chase them cause they are in a car and gonna win, easier said than done when your angry, when I have finish taping my bike you will be able to see it from the moon, F==k man thats a long story but interesting I believe, all well that ends well.
