Your post reminded me that as we enter spring, more motorcyclists will be out and about with the fair weather. As many car drivers have become used to driving around only among other cars during the winter, they often DON'T see motorcycles, because their brains don't process us as being visible. I know that sounds strange, but it's true. Be also aware that every year brings a new crop of "Biffs and Muffies" with fresh new driver licenses and that youthful naiive attitude of "I'll NEVER have an accident" as they drive around with newly developed skills, a cell phone in the ear, and a car load of noise from friends and stereo.

Be careful out there! SOMEONE is out to get us, and we just don't know who it will be.



Good points. I'd like to also mention that as spring nears there are those of us who haven't ridden for a few months. Take it easy for a while for your skills might be a little rusty.
