I have done one of the dumbest things today ever in a while.
I am coming out of my side street at dusk and a car in a drive starts to pull out and stops. Then he turns his lights off and then back on and starts out again but stops and shuts the lights back off. I am confused wondering what it is up with all of that thinking the guy may not see me or pull out in front of me.
I was so distracted that this happened about 25 yards from the stop sign that I tried to take off on a BUSY two lane road in 3rd gear.
All I can say is that its a good thing nothing was coming!!! I all but killed the little 750 and got it down a gear or 3 and went on finally. But boy it was ugly.
I think I may be in the early stages of old timers. It is like there is a blank page in my mind sometimes. I know better and usually do better but sometimes I just dont think.
