Exploring life on a Vespa Scooter and Royal Enfield Himalayan motorcycle.
A friend linked to the video below on Facebook. I thought it was a riding video and I guess it sort of is. Made me wonder about what moves through my brain while moving down the road. I’m certainly not thinking about the things that concern Mordeth13.
Most of the time I am moving away from any concerns at all and just soaking in the visual experience. But everyone’s different. And maybe if I was riding through traffic like this fellow who made the video I would have different concerns too…
Morning Fall
by Edward McGinty
I’ve been working on a piece related to risk and the potential price of riding. It’s the sort of thing that makes family and spouses uncomfortable but bears consideration by anyone who ventures out on two wheels. Denial is not a useful tool in managing risk.
I’ve reposted the Morning Fall video that I shared over two years ago. It helped me think about risk and consequences and has focused my attention (again) on managing my skills and expectations wisely. If you have not seen it before it is worth watching. And if you have, maybe it will rekindle your own desires to be a better rider.
I should be posting my new risk piece over the weekend.
