Fear of death or injury

[bubblerboy64_imp]

Risk??? Life is full of it. Anyone who minimizes it is ignoring reality but good points are made. I ride a motorcycle some and I accept the risk perhaps foolishly (that's the real debate isn't it) but I over eat and don't exercise much and that's 100 times more likely to get me then the bike.

When people talk about motorcycles and risk I never minimize it and if they are non riders I don't even discuss it with them because they have no reference. I'd sooner try to teach my dog to do calculus. If they do ride I'd get into it with them.

There is no doubt when you are on the hospital bed as a result of the FOOLISH things you've done there will be regrets. BUT motorcycles is down the list a ways for many of us.

So be careful on the bike and be careful with your fork and glass and you guys that smoke? Well what's the point of even going there.

Simply stated we are not self preservationist personality types. Read up on self preservationists.

Ever watch the Isle of Man TT races. Now those guys are NUTS.
