then ya dont belong on a bike. Dumb ass drivers dont scare me, I just assume its part of the art of riding a motorcycle. Things that scare you, will hurt you. Observing, anticipating and reacting to EVERYTHING (other drivers, riders, conditions, widelife, etc) shouldn’t scare the rider, it should trigger natural and proper reactions.

Put it this way, I have raced and ridden bikes, quads, sleds, you name it for a long time. Very rarely do I get that adrenaline rush from avoiding disaster on those things any more. Going around a car pulling out infront of me, or coming up a little short on a 100’ motocross jump, doesn’t get me going. In a car, for some reason I get that short rush once a week from avoiding idiots, hydroplaning out of nowhere, missing a deer, etc. I dont know why it is like that, other than I somehow wrote out the scary factor or some shit.
