@modprobe That is insane! I haven't had an accident involving anything other than me sending my own bike for wheelies. Many were against me riding for many reasons but didn't stop me! Get back on! It is so worth it :)
I read the stories and that was gruesome! Were you wearing a helmet at all? I lived in Cuernavaca for some time but I don't really remember if helmets were common.
I don't know much either; I have been riding since Aug 2014 and learn something new about them quite often!
Haha, it was quite an experience. I'm glad I had it, though, I learned, and continue to learn, a lot about myself and the world from the ordeal.
Nope, no helmet. I think I'll probably wear one on now until I get comfortable with motorcycles, but in general, helmets aren't my thing.
@modprobe I may squid but I always wear a helmet/gloves. I've seen nasty spills and hit my head learning to stunt. Thankful for the helmets protection and I think they just look bad ass! Glad to hear you will wear one for awhile at least!
