I saw this thread title on another forum and was interested what the folk over here make of it...?
How do you feel when you hear stories of bones ground into tarmac, guts all over the place etc
For me the biggest fear if the worst was ever to happen would be the inability to use my body the way I do now. I absolutely love body building, cycling, mountaineering. I can't bear to think what life would be like if I couldn't do those things. At the same time, I cannot imagine a life without my motorbike. It would be like losing the love of my life.
My own reasoning is, although accidents are plenty, the very serious ones are rare and injuries often caused by lack of appropriate clothing. Then again even a low speed fall could crash my knee and mean I can never do a squat or a lunge for the rest of my life. I guess I don't think about it on a regular basis...
