Some people are looking right at you but still don't see you.
Its a dangerous world.
I don't expect it to be perfect.
I have always taken calculated risks.
Between age 19 and 36, i did 130,000 miles on a
variety of motorcycles, with most miles on a BMW R75/5.
I fell off a few times, snapped a cruciate ligament and crushed an
ankle.
Nobody else was hurt.
I'm not just lucky to be here, I'm
DAMNED lucky.
