I don't want Liz to crash

That's why I'm so worried about her. It's easy to fall asleep while driving, especially if you haven't gotten any sleep in the past 24 hours. I'm glad she got home safe today, but I'm sill worried.

I´ve found that it´s much easier for me to fall asleep when I drive my motorcycle! Crazy, but it´s true! When I´m just cruising along on a straight road, the wind is warm... It´s so easy to close my eyes then and just let the bike ride with me.

Much more dangerous than if I´m in my car, don´t know why this is but it has happened. Well, I haven´t fallen asleep while riding, but I´ve rested my eyes and when I opened them I´ve ridden almost 100 meters! Alot can happen in a 100 meters.

That's WAY more dangerous than falling asleep in a car

Must be a nice feeling to fall asleep on a motorcycle without crashing though.

I've crashed a few times on my motorcycle, but never from falling asleep

That´s just the thing. It´s so nice to close my eyes and tilt my head down just a bit and just listen to the engine and feel the road underneath. But oh, too dangerous to do often and I don´t allow myself to do it much. Maybe once a year and only under perfect circumstances and if I feel like it. And I barely do it even then because I can´t stop thinking about what could happen...


Me too. When I had just gotten the one I have now I fell over when I stopped on a small hill because I wasn´t yet used to the suspension.

It's a really bad idea to fall asleep on a motorcycle. As relaxing as it is, I wouldn't do it anyway. Anything could happen, things can go wrong, even when it seems perfect...


I remember once I crashed into a mailbox. Another time I fell trying to turn on a curve. My motorcycle also randomly turned off at one point while I was riding and I fell. Luckily I've never been seriously injured

I know. It´s a bad, bad idea


You mean it turned itself off and the engine just stopped?

I don't know what happened. The damn thing turned itself off and yes, the engine stopped. It still does that sometimes

Sounds like you need to go check that up. Maybe it´s a connection problem somewhere?

Maybe. It refuses to turn on sometimes as well. Maybe it's the battery

I've been doing some more GFX with GIMP after finally fixing a problem with installing fonts(you need to use an admin account).

But if it´s the battery it shouldn´t turn itself off when you drive it. I spoke to my mechanic about that and he said that even if the battery crashes the vehicle doesn´t stop when it´s running. It must be something else.

Anyway, I´m off for today. See ya tomorrow, guys!

I'll get it checked out when I have the money. Don't wanna die because the damn thing shuts down in the middle of the highway

One who lives in fear of misfortune, suffers it twice.

Confucius say: "Man who go to church smelly, sit in own pew."

Confucious say: "Man who places appendage in peanut butter, is nuckin' futs."

That sounds like the alternator. It is what charges up your battery when the engine is running. The electronics on your bike run off the battery, and if the alternator is not keeping it charged, it will eventually die, and your engine with it. If the battery was dead after the engine died, that is definitely the problem.

oh, and Confucius say: Man that go to bed with itchy butt wake up with sticky fingers.
