    Talking Important reminder to all riders

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QahG6...&feature=bz301

    // This is why we should all be a little more careful. Pay a bit more care when doing "cool bike things" which we all love. Take care people, theres to much carnage!
    It is only when we have lost everything that we are free to do anything.

    Those are so sad. I think it is a good reminder that we are not bulletproof and crashproof. Real good reminder for us newbies who are just getting our confidence up and sometimes it can go trough the clouds.

    Thanks.

    A few examples of why I'm grateful for the emergency services... imagine facing that stuff on a regular basis...

    Bugger that for a laugh. Must say all of those were at fault of the bikers themselves.
    To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded

    I get the feeling that was the point of the vid.

    once again a quick look at a U tube clip has taken me 45 minutes!, one vid leads into another and before you know it the wife is telling me off for wasting time!.
    A universal dream of greatness is that
    We push ourselves to the limit
    Yet still be brilliant when the chips are down.
    Sometimes , The struggle kills the dream.

    The one (I think it was the 3rd clip) where the guy ends up convulsing made me feel queasy.

    I doubt his neck was broken - he was not exactly keeping his head still. Convulsions often look worse than they are - I wouldn't presume to guess at what caused him to start it.

    But yeah, that guys taking off the helmet should have been a bit more careful!
    It is preferential to refrain from the utilisation of grandiose verbiage in the circumstance that your intellectualisation can be expressed using comparatively simplistic lexicological entities. (...such as the word fuck.)
