Title: Superstitions
Post by: spaz on August 27, 2003, 03:31:13 AM
i believe the forces of the universe have given me to much bad luck

if a normal person has a 50/50 % chance to pick the right one i have 80% chance to pick the wrong one

and fairies they stole my motorcycle key a few weeks ago at home and they brought it back yesterday at work

I dont have a superstition as such, but I somethimes think that if my helmet strap is not done up perfect or my glove is not tight enough or something stupid like that then I am tempting fate.... generally when I ride, I am ready for anything and everything

Never ride unless you are totally in the game...

We have no choice but to believe in free will.

I dunno about superstitions, but I do know a few immutable rules of the universe:
Going out without your rain gear will cause it to rain.
Going out with all your rain gear will prevent it from raining.
Pretty bikes invite crashes.  When you get to the racetrack with your brand new paint job & all the spiffy graphics, you might as well just push the bike off the end of the trailer as soon as you get there & get it over with.
Pretty new leathers attract crashes, too.  I don't know if suiting up & just jumping off the tech shed roof helps here.
You are far more likely to need to go to reserve just past the sign that says "Next exit 39 miles" then the one that says "Next exit one mile"
You know that little space between the bottom of your helmet chin bar & the top of your turtle neck?  The bigger the bug, the more likely he'll hit ya right there.  Gnats tend to end up on the windscreen & the front of the fairing.

He forgot that it also rains when you go out right after washing your bike.
