Hey Mark...that is some of the very best news I have in a while! You keep it up man...

Oddly enough, I do think it would be a damn shame and waste to have someone like you kill himself. Keep safe. I'd say I'd look forward to riding along with you, but i'm such a nana, I'd be worried to bore you even with your new resolutions of keeping the speed low

look at the date of the thread.

[QUOTE=Toaster;1000975]Mark, I am impressed at your decision to pull your head in. I am glad you did it before someone had to scrape your head up off the road.

I sold my GSXR1000 and bought a cruiser... slowed me down no end.


dude.Ride safe and grin.[/QUOTE

riding round early this afternoon riding along like a moron again lane splitting in 50 zones and all that stupid crap speeding and so on go round this car and they gave me evils....oh watever look at something else... i think to myself get up to some lights... stopped at the lights....nailed it redlining every gear thinking i am god. flicking it through corners at just plain stupid speeds.

then i dunno wtf it was but i just looked behind had miles behind me thought time to change my ways...i have no idea what bought about this change.....stomped on the anchors down to just hovering on 50 kph... and rode round 50 kph zones at 50 the whole day yes if traffic was doing 55 or so i hovered there but not the usual 90-110+ lane splitting speeds.....

i am sure this is a resolve to myself i need to and am going to keep before i either loose my license or kill myself or somebody else because of my dangerous ways....

thank you to all the people that had told me to just chill and stop playing ghostrider...

i'm sure i will be much better off for it....

and ive had my kicks of being a retard on the roads.... it's time to grow up be an adult and respect that the roads are for others too....

so i am resolving to ride sensibly from now on mainly not speeding but also stopping the weaving in and out of lanes riding down the road standing on my seat....riding down the road with both feet slung out to the same side of the bike doing the can can......

time to grow up....and i did...all afternoon...

and i plan to keep doing this....somethings triggered me

i was always so angry with myself that i rode the way i did and had no self control or patience on the roads...

now ive woken up and plan to keep it that way...

i know your probably all going to poke shit at me about this thread go ahead i know what ive been doing up until now was stupid and down right dangerous ....

Cheers: Mark
