OFF-TOPIC REBORN - THANK GOD!

[raad182]

Hey guys,

A week ago I've just bought a bicycle in a worldwide brand and yesterday when I arrived at home after a ride and grabbed the bicycle to put it on the support...the back wheel just fell off, totally, like it was totally loose a few minutes before when I was going downhill (its a mountain bike). Things could went real bad, life just gave me another chance. Im still shocked, probably I will never ride a bicycle like that anymore, Im scared for life when I remember everything I did with that bike and how much of risk I've faced.
Be aware guys, Im still shocked but I just want to say to you that are reading this...Enjoy life, seize every minute of it and never take it for granted.

Nice message, thanks for sharing and glad you're ok! But don't be afraid to keep riding! A friend of mine was tragically killed after being hit by a car when she was just walking down the street, on the pavement, not crossing or anything. The driver had a heart attack while driving, crashed and killed them both. What are the chances? Today, a footballer for Cardiff City was on a flight from France to the UK which went missing in the English Channel. Such a short flight and happened to go missing in the one place where it would be impossible to perform an emergency landing. Point is, even something as simple as walking down the street carries its risks. As you say, enjoy life, do what you love and don't worry too much about things you can't control. Maybe just take an extra few mins to check the bike before a ride.
