Biggest Fear on a Bike

[wolfxandxcrow]

i read a story a while back bout a guy who was cruising around with his girlfriend when someone pulled out in front of them causing a bad crash where he was injured and the girl died. i have a lot of i the moment fears like -what if a deer runs out in front of me? -what if i hit a big patch of sand (it sucks) - what if i get smidsy'd - what if my front tire goes flat -what if i shart....
but what scares me the most is thinking about the aforementioned scenario of my passenger being killed while i'm relatively okay. that would be a terrible kind of traumatic.

1) An idiot running an intersection and sideswiping me.
2) (though unrealistic) My tires blowing for good reason while I am riding fast.

Not all fears have to be rational.

Peeps just pulling out of nowhere, not paying attention to us.

I never really had a fear riding my bike until I heard about M13's crash and what happened to him. That night all I could think about was crashing on my bike. Got over it after but still in the back of my mind now.

Probably not the right thing to say, But jesus he complains and plays the sympathy card big time.
I feel for the guy, I get that its fucken scary and that he is in alot of trouble, but damn

Not even my mom can lay a guilt trip like he can

I was just wondering, what's everyone's biggest fear whilst on a bike?

I'm not much of a "fear" guy, I'm more the "oh shit" type.

biggest fear ... mmm ... i would have to say looking stupid if i come off like i did when i fell off the curb and dropped my bike and everyone laughed at me X x

Nothing is as bad as a bruised ego!

haha you've got that right :') X x

Its interesting, and I wonder if this happens to anyone else. While I am on ridding I don't really fear anything. I mean I am very mindful, keep my head on a swivel, and ride like everyone is trying to kill me. But, I don't ride with any fear. Now on the other hand when I am just hanging out or thinking about riding I start thinking off all the things that can happen and that's when I feel fear. Damn Brain!

When you get riding you focus on the job in hand, not the what ifs.

I fear causing someone else harm or damages from just being an idiot. I've never run a run light but I'd hate to just be out of it and hit something or get hit.

I'd feel really upset if I ran over a cat. There's a deaf white cat in my neighbourhood. She lives really dangerously!

But generally harming any creature/human while riding the bike is nothing I want to deal with. Can't do anything about the flies though, they don't evade quick enough.

I've already got my highside certification so I'm good with that, I think what worries me most is hurting someone else, like Mrs. 2WM if she were to ride on the back of my bike.

Breakdown / crash / injury that throws out my ride or roadtrip.

My fear is not enjoying the time I have ....I died for a bit 3 years back when I got clipped by a non indicating car and put me through this wall.... It's been a long road back but has changed me for the better

Maybe Mr. fish has nine lives like a cat ~

The post was the same as the other one before I hit it lol....death is overrated so I came back ;-) I would have to thank the staff of St George's trauma unit (who have a tv series over here) not just for the physical support but the mental support as well ...but now I'm bionic
