Yesterday, I went on ride with a couple of buddies. We got on the interstate for about a mile. During that mile, a car merged onto the interstate in front of me, I checked my mirror and saw one of my buddies changing lanes to go around the car. I started to change lanes, at about 75mph mind you, and hit the side of a suv. Luckily, I didn't freak out and for some reason, I didn't wipe out. I guess sometimes we all need a wake up call in regards to safety. I got mine. Thankfully, someone was looking out for me.

I know how you feel. I had my wake up call about three weeks ago. Ride safe and God bless.

Jason, glad you are ok! Just remember that real life is not a video game, bumping into real cars on a real bike won't help you go faster.  Soren
