All good - I don't mind people pointing it out, all ways good to remember our time here is limited.
I guess it’s selfish to ride a bike when you have a family that’s depending on you (I have 2 kids), you are more likely to die riding a motor bike – it’s a fact isn’t it?

Worst case scenario is being injured and sentancing them to caring for you for the rest of your life – it happens, I know a guy who T boned a car that pulled out of a side road in front of him. He’s now in a wheel chair, he just sits there dribbling out the side of his mouth, everyone has to care for him, change his nappies and everything. That’s worse than death.
But most people are selfish in some way, and I’d rather get out and ride than stay at home and feel resentful?

Bikes are an addiction; riding has a chemical effect on your body that increases the endorphins – or somin. Similar to a mild drug or having sex (chocolate for some woman).

True that, I spent most of the six years I was without a bike wanting to go postal.

Having a bike or being a serial killer?

I reckon if the govt can't supply me a bike as a mental health benefit they could at least make them tax deductible.

I have been a temporary citizen since 1976..........(actually I am not even a citizen come to think of it) I have had my moments of

as most of us have, but I would not swap being out and about on 2 wheels for anything!! Take care, be aware!! you will be sweet!

I've got this term thrown at me from a dearly loved uncle who used to ride years ago. He still got on my bike though!!

Also, the headmaster at the kids high school called both hubby and I temporary citizens.... I just thought at the time 'Pbhhht! Like he has some magic pill!'

It pisses me off to hear it, too... Good comments here though.

You can be temporary if you are a fool! and sometimes it is bad luck. But you cant hide from everythng that might kill you! Just be aware thats all!

All life is temporary.
Make the most of the one you have while you still have it.
Personally, I would rather die on my bike today than know I was never going to ride again.

At my age I'd be more likely to die of cancer than riding my bike.

Now I don't know of anyone dieing of cancer while riding their bike ....

....so riding my bike is lilkey to lengthen my life.

And the best way to avoid getting blown up in a terrorist bomb on a plane is to take your own bomb with you, because how likely is it that two different people have bombs on the same plane?!
