    I’m not afraid to admit that stuff like this is why I stopped riding once I became a parent. Maybe I’ll take it up again when I’m too old to give a shit anymore. No matter how careful you are as a motorcyclist, there can always be some asshole who will come along and ruin your day. Stay sharp out there riders.
