Also be safe on bike Frank. You clearly not, wiped out two times just messing around. Bare minimum please wear a helmet then improve your pheriperal vision so you can see & predict from all angles
true, i've been taking awareness more seriously since then, still haven't got a helmet yet although it's up high on the to buy list. trying to take a more chill and safe approach.
on top of the slams i also got a ticket for crossing a red light(at night with no one around but the cops were watching from a little dark spot with all the lights off) so i feel after pushing my limits for a few months, this week has been sort of a reality check, especially after what happened to fongstarr i actually wanted to take it easier.
and to fully disclose my shitty road rager past, i've been no stranger to accidents, which ultimately only harmed myself and my vehicles, but i totaled 2 cars in my life and caught plenty of speeding tickets. i've basically sworn off driving a motored vehicle because i don't trust myself. i usually end up fucking around with them in one way or another.
also a good friend of mine whooped my ass verbally pretty good after i told him about that second one, haha. i was all joking like "yeah man, see, fuck brakes, haha, if i have had a fixie that wouldn't have happened..." he just replies "you're a fucking moron..." and goes on for a good 15 minutes why. he was 100% right with everything.
