Me, self-named MadMax, has been riding two-wheeled vehicles for a long time now. Though that in no way means that my experience has made me a better rider. But some incidents, accidents and some more, has given me a lot of revelations...some of which may sound very sane to (the so-called) 'normal' people and some, which may not. Kindly adjust.
[u]I've learnt that :
[*]a person doesn't necessarily become a better rider with age. [*] the difference between riding fast and riding rashly is very thin. [*]you can woo girls with your stunts, but they may not necessarily be the kind of girls you would want.[*]there are two kinds of people in this world : bikers and non-bikers.[*]there are two kinds of bikers in this world : commuters and real
bikers.[*]a lone journey is as enjoyable as one with a group of friends.[*]your bike treats you the exact same way that you treat it.[*]you can enjoy a 100cc commuter bike as much as a 535cc cruiser.[*]riding faster than others doesn't really mean you are a better rider.[*]riding rashly requires two qualities : courage and foolishness.[*]you can finish off a new tyre in 3000 kms and a set of brake shoes in 1000 kms.[*]alternately, you can make them last for 30000 kms and 10000 kms respectively.[*]two-strokes thrill, but four-strokes endure.[*]if you can't change a flat tyre, never go on a trip alone.[*]cars need more space on the road than bikes.[*]wearing a helmet may look funny, but it might help things from getting real serious.[*]you don't need a girl on your bike for setting your heart-beats
racing.[*] life begins at 100 kmph. [*] asking a true blue biker his bike's mileage is a good way to insult him.[*]a car-guy will never understand the feelings of a bike-guy.[*]tiny rain-drops falling on your face at 80 kmph can really hurt.[*]a motorcycle is the ultimate symbol of independence.[*]giving the cops the finger is only funny till they catch up with
you. [*]being over-confident may not always help in traffic-light drags.
[*]180 cc / 15 bhp four-stroke goes much slower than 350 cc / 37 bhp two-stroke.
[*]men on bikes who get provoked easily are either grown-up boys or bachelors.
[*] you can always straighten corners with greater lean angles, but it doesn't always work out the way you think it would. [*]looking at the scars on your body before a ride, doesn't necessarily make you ride safely.[*]wheelies are much easier than stoppies. [*]it's not how your bikes looks, but how it rides, that matters. [*]i don't have the fastest bike in the country anymore.[*]falling from a bike seems funny only when you've not fallen from your bike the previous day.[*]riding rashly irritates people.[*] riding without a silencer makes people hate you.[*]scaring slow-going cars by passing them at 120 kmph is real fun.[*]humps are for slowing you down, red lights are for stopping you, zebra crossings are for pedestrians.[*]taking your girl-friend in your car is much 'safer' than taking her on your bike.[*]when things start falling off your bike, you should know you've been pushing her too hard.[*] the craving inside me to get on the road, will die, only when my eyes close.
