Oh, he must have added one more at the last minute. :D

Who knows the real reason... There is an editors note near the bottom, as if it had been reviewed and edited by someone. Maybe the editor can't count either.

Just remember when riding everyone and everything is out to KILL you and never assume anything else , never put your trust/LIFE in the other guy.
Beware and stay aware,ride with a heightened sense of awareness and stay alive !!!!

Bot, why did you post this crapola ? What purpose does it serve ?
We all ride we all know!
Maybe just a pic of a wrecked bike and a reminder to "Ride Aware" would safice !

We all know the risks, unless we're fifteen to twenty five, and I bet a good few of us, myself included, know the pain. We still do it, and mathematical calculations about flying bodies, impact speeds and loadings, and grisly photos doesn't stop us permanently. I did have a twenty seven year break though.

I have been mostly away from this forum for the last year. One reason is the tone is changing as keyboard courage takes over. Another is newbs who are part of the PT (Participation Trophy) crowd and will not be still long enough to learn from the older guys.

Look up Australia's Traffic Accident Commission videos. There are at least 50. For the PT crowd who want it all now the One compilation that runs 5:22 long to the tune of "Everybody Hurts" should help you decide to at least modify your thinking. My apologies to youngsters/newbs who don't fall in this category. Ask for help, and you will get it here.

Go get 'em Serowbot! :)
