Speed demon

Speed demon

Leather feels good on skin
A covering of strengthened hide
Confidence can be misleading
This could be my final ride.
Every sense is heightened
I'm prepared and know the truth
When I ride on lightning
I'll be lucky to come back to you.
Every time the helmet's on
The visor is pushed down
Passiveness is quickly gone
The king of speed has got his crown.
A wild man is now uncaged
The twisting of the throttle
The feeling when I'm on the edge
Is priceless if it's bottled.
Acceleration takes my breath
I simply can't deny
The closer that I get to death
The more I feel alive.

Hello John...

Very well written...

Thanks for the ride!

One-time an elderly woman didn't look and I thought I was going to be smushed...

Another time a woman fell off the back of a bike and her boyfriend said she's a good girlfriend she got between the pavement and the bike...

He went about 3 miles while she laid in the Street before he turned around...

He had on If You Can Read This The B*#@& Fell Off T-shirt...

Great write!

Thank you for sharing...

Hugs...

Thank you Sparrowsong! I'm thrilled you liked this one enough to pin, vote and comment! You're absolutely right, it amazes me how much people are bike blind. Nearly every near miss I've had is because of this! Not because I've gone in to a corner too hot...honestly! Lol! I wonder if the poor woman ever went on the back again after that, and if she made him destroy the tshirt!?
Thanks again,for your time and interest,much appreciated!  And stay safe yourself my friend!
much love.

Hello John...

​​​​They were going again the next day...

She was limpin', but she was going...

I think they were getting her a drink first...

?

He got to keep the shirt he was wearing it the next day...

Just so happened they were staying at the same Hotel as me...

I was laughing so hard...

I never heard anyone compliment his Girlfriend as much as he did when she when she pavement the pavement divider...

I was trying not to laugh because I really did feel bad for her, but I couldn't help it...

?

Thanks again!
