INTEMPERANCE X - Chapter 20, Get Your Motor Runnin'
🕑 Added 2025-10-12 07:52:38 +0000 UTCHere is the next installment of Intemp. We're ticking down to the Tsunami Sound Festival, but the gang still finds ways to keep themselves amused. As always, let me know how I'm doing. And I posted an illustration of Tater the biker. This is what he looks like in my mind--or at least as close as AI could get there.

First and only time I rode a bike 55 years ago. Bug Tussle TX, pop 20 or maybe 11. Straight flat empty road, no traffic, just flat Texas farmland. It was a big bike maybe an 800CC Indian. No helmet or other protective clothing and no lesson. I think the guy just told me how to shift and sent me off down the road. The ride lasted maybe 10 or 15 minutes and I’m not sure if I ever made it out of first.

Would still ride if I was single

Spot on learning to ride a motor! Clutching, gears, front /rear brakes…add a stop sign, traffic light, then traffic itself…and finally get it all together! It’s just happened and muscle memory take the fear out…you become somewhat complacent…that’s the danger as you happen to forget to look, they don’t see you…happened to me. Just sayin. 1000 times likelier to have a car crash than crash in a plane. Lot less likely to come to work Monday saying , did you see the airplane or motorcycle crash I was in
