> [@Neon](#): > > Or a really short one now that you have a bike. I wasn’t going to say it but yeah, a bike is a great way to turn a mid-life crisis into an end of life crisis. Be careful and take the safety course. Assume every car you see about to pull out is plotting to kill you. ---

Bikes are fun but I was almost T boned with the first 15 minutes of riding last year. It always seems to be women driving the largest legal tanks, I mean grocery getters on the road too. ---

Just trying to piss off the other troll “My4wheelsAreGhey” I am just saying, you get into any accident and they know about your posts here, you instantly turn your involuntary accident into a full blown manslaughter with intent to kill charge.
