Ways of Buanging... Grrr
-
Dear friends,
I was travelling across from west to East twice yesterday. Then halfway , i kept thinking if i buang which way should i fall over/fling myself towards ......
I have never fallen before or buang before, even during pract. Then was thinking oh shit, what if i fall , do i know how to react?
My thoughts are
1.) If got road shoulder,Fling yourself towards it.
2.) must Skid , try not to skid into another lane, or lagi worse oncoming lane.
Fall onto your own lane at least car behind can see.
And avoid being followed by Long vehicles or buses which have difficulty stopping in time.
Then sway sway , today i got my first experience. Luckily , occurred in this lucky place. I was going from basement carpark in my hostel, puddle of oil/water , dem slippery. My bike was literally stationery/at 5km/hr. i took note slippery and travel super slowly. but bo pian the floor too slippery, so i skidded , literally a stationery bike fall from 90degs to 0 degs.
Had minor cut on hand. And a post cruciate ligament tear. Siau liao, so slow and no danger , oso can get lig tear. I put knee brace and took some anti-inflammatory, must rest for 2-3 weeks can liao.
But imagine if you are on the expressway with a big truck behind you!!! I sweat at that thought. I rem i chopped off a young 19-year-old man's leg after he skidded to oncoming lane and was ran over by cement mixer. Bike chui nvm , leg oso chui.
So pls , DON"T ride when rain or after rain!!! And i think it is wise to stay left and go slowly. I go slow at 70-80kmh at leftmost lane like old ah peh on scooters wan. I always wear protective jacket then sway sway just now din't wear bcos thot short journey to library onli, then kenna cut and skin abrasion
Protection really impt! REALLY ! Gloves and riding jacket.

So Paiseh , so long. But suddenly feel gush to kao peh. If you wanna flame me , tell me then i edit above mssg.
= ( sad now. If my lig tear don't get well.
I may wan to ask a doctor for scope and reconstructive surgery.
Recovering full functionality , chance veri good, but shit i may have to pay theatre fee etc.
If my parents find out , i confirm forced to sell my bike.
And heng ah , i just bought personal insurance 2 weeks ago. So even minor scratches from motorcycling can claim . But still got excess i think. Do get personal accident for hospitalisation or treatment.
Pls ride safely . Easier said than done. I have seen many pple suffer several months for one mistake.

If you are tokking about PA, then i bought a Personal Accident Insurance from AIA at $133.40. Covers minor injury and motorcycling and terrorist acts. Gives a lump sum for injury , and day sum for ward charges. Ntuc oso offers. You can look for Marine Lee at HP:96249950 n tell her you are Joel's friend.
If you are tokking about motor insurance , i get mine from Mitsui at $148.32.
Do ride carefully and stay safe. Hope all the bad luck ends from today and tomoro New Year Ushers in Blessings... -

Just my experience:
Christmas Eve, just finished booking class 2A at SSDC. I travelled on CTE, it was raining. CTE jammed, so I was squeezing between traffic. Then a car suddenly change lane, so I tap rear brake lightly, fishtail sia!! It took me nearly 15 secs to control back the bike. Balls shrink sia!
The suzuki bandit behind me see I fishtail also scare, keep a further distance. -
u may think u are tapping brake but actually u jam it down liao
coz thats what i tot was doing when i did a stoppie as well as when i fishtailed.
