What Are You Thinking Of Right Now?

Both ankles, both wrists, both shoulders, and my arthritic hands told me it was going to rain.
I never gave any of this crap a moment's thought when I bought my first motocross bike :laughing
 
I've been pondering the idea that maybe, just maybe, a lot of drivers learned how steering works back when they were little kids riding bikes.

I see so many car drivers countersteer- they'll swerve left to make a right hand turn, for example- that there must be some explanation for it.

This train of thought was prompted by me almost getting sideswiped in my work truck this morning by a car that drifted over into my lane to make a 90 degree turn the other direction.

Of course I'd seen this behavior many, many times, but this was an extreme example and it got me wondering how people learned to do this.
 
It's cause most drivers fade into the corner (let the car drift towards the corner) like newbie track riders. Then they realize their angle to the corner is totally fucked and they have to open the corner up, which means wander into your lane. I think they can't see the inside curbing and thus, weave into the other lanes to "miss" hitting an inside curb and instead of driving a bit further into an intersection, they cut the corners...idiots.

Drivers are horrible these days. Absolute nightmares.
 
I'm also thinking depending on the timeline, I may be able to help with printing stuff for the 25th anniversary... But don't know yet
 
she scheduled me for the first day. full shift - 6:30am to 5pm. i’m thinking every last one of ‘em thinks i’m pepe the little mule. i’m also thinking, at some point i should get around to disabusing them of that notion.
 
I am thinking about training others to do what I do at work. Today is the day I show them what games i use with all of my clients, youth and adults. Hope she doesn't trademark it!
 
I'm thinking I forgot to prep coffee last night.
