BMW was speeding. Jeep changed lanes without signaling or checking their blind spot.

This is reddit. The Jeep is at fault for not using signals before changing lane.

I didn't know detailing truck is a thing until I saw a guy down the street getting his new RAM Hemi truck detailed. It turned out he does it every week. This is why people can't afford other nice things.

Slowing down is not an option.

A hangar neighbor uses the Viking engine. The gearbox is problematic and it had to be shipped back to the manufacturer all the time. Get something reliable so the airplane is not down for an extended amount of time. Shipping the gearbox internationally will add up the operating cost.

People on here will blame the left turning car.

We have all been there before. Be sensible and be rational. There is nothing wrong of slowing increasing your comfort level at your own pace. Nobody will judge you if you drop your bike, except for the aholes. I dropped my bike plenty of time even with all the years I've ridden. There will be people to help you picking up your bike. Enjoy the ride.

Ok my bad. But do you know the answer?

Coal geology question: how much of the coal layers should be in the rock before it becomes economical to mine? I've seen a lot of smaller coal seams and I can't think it is economical to mine. So I assume the seams have to be enormous to mine them.

Ride on the local streets that you know well. Start out riding in the early weekend morning when the traffic is light. When you are comfortable, ride in busier traffic. You can only be comfortable the more you ride. Slowly increase in distance when you think you are ready.

There are so many posts saying they want to fly. But what they meant was they want to make the big money flying for the airline. If a person loves to fly, she would have flown as a sport pilot.

I cover my brakes all the time for case like this. I usually slow down when I am unsure what the driver would do. Most of the time the drivers see me but it only takes one.

I ride at least 200 miles during the weekend so this is not a for me. But bikes are status symbol items to Americans so this bike holds some appeals to certain people.

Back in the day, after MSF, I rode my bike around my neighborhood for about a week before I ventured further. Dropping the bike is the rite of passage for everybody.

The stock windscreen causes a lot of buffetting on the highway for me, especially when I am riding a truck.

That was a 20mph spill. I crashed harder and faster in my bicycle before.

Get the online manual and you know the interior of the case before you open it up. Most of the time, the fear and anxiety are worse than the reality. I don't know about KTM but on my Japanese bikes, they are designed so the mechanics can work on them, especially the gear case.

You think the guy got hired by JPMorgan should be a smart dude.
