Up to no Good
Really everything is my biggest fear. I am scared to death that something will happen to me and I will put my family through hell for selfishness. Yes I still ride but I try and be doubly careful.
the insane amounts of people that drive to the dump on the freeway without securing their loads.
Ive hit so many crazy things inmy car and every time i thank god for not being on my bike.
I once saw a guy lose 10 5gallon ceramic plant pots. some smashed the hoods of cars others would sneak under the lifted trucks and at the end get sucked 5 feet into the air.
garbage is very erratic and unpredictable with the winds of other cars.
otherwise its a woman on a cellphone
My biggest fear....Kangaroo's! They are big, solid, reasonably fast moving, they blend into the bush, and generally come out of nowhere....you hit one on a bike and it's pretty much curtains time!
In the bush, and sometimes, the outer limits of most Aussie City's, they are very common...especialloy in area's that are speed limited to 100/110km'h....hit one at those speeds! Ouch!
For some reason this made me laugh out loud. Its strange to live here in america then hear someone talk about kangaroos jumping out in front of them. Sorry just had to say. But yeah animals scare me too.
Do you also live on Cape Cod?? It is very scary to drive on these roads, as the Snowbirds are back. I am fearful of them when I am in my truck let alone my bike. I drive with my highbeams on during the day so that I look bigger.
West Newbury which is next to Newburyport.
I fear inattentive drivers and animals. All sizes, shapes, and breeds of animals. I have seen plenty of odd ones: beaver, turkeys, bear, moose, deer, and then there was the one time that I was chased down the road by a horse. No joke.
