never in my life i would imagine myself in a situation like Sunday night.
it will always be etched in my memory.
I would like to take this opportunity to reach out to people who know of young motorcyclists, or girlfriends of motorbike riders. Please tell your friends not to speed and observe safety. or not even attempt to ride.
And if you're a driver, please give way to motorbikes because not everybody has enough money to afford a car. Please check your blindspots and don't bully motorcyclists.
I was a pillion rider on my boyfriend's bike and we were on our way to catch a night movie. We were on the PIE. and there was a heavy rain in the evening. So the roads were slippery. it happened when the bike self skidded. Even though my bf was a careful rider, sometimes things can't be prevented.
Both of us can drive and have vehicles, it's just that riding a motorbike saves time and fuel.
I'm glad I've managed to escaped with deep wounds , and not fractures or spinal injuries. I can still move, think and speak. But not everybody is as lucky.
Please remember. Wear a jacket, long pants and shoes when you're on a motorbike. Wear the appropriate helmet, secure and comfortable.
Don't speed unless you think life is meaningless.
