Pop a tire? Find a patch.
Squeaky breaks? Careful with that gas.
Take a spill? Get back upright and hold on tight.
Won't start? Check your shit, wet your hands with spit, try it again.
The road is open, long and narrow. The wind is in your hair, and the motor is screaming. The wind grows stronger and your ass eats the sea. Someone pulls in front of you and hits the breaks. Lay off your throttle, squeeze the clutch and kick it down a gear with your heavy boot. Take a quick glance and see where there are now cars. Now lay off the clutch and PUNCH that throttle hard. Grip the pavement with your back wheel into the left lane. Look to your right and smile big as you flip the folks in the car that cut you off. Your ass is hungry for more seat, and as the wind blows harder it makes a sound like a mating call for your hair. As your engine screams into high RPMs, shift back up a gear. As you watch the car that pulled in front of you grow smaller in your mirror, be open to anything the road may have in store for you.
