Like a scene from an Agatha Christie Crime Thriller, or a Who Dunnit movie the following pictures say it all. I'd like to have thought that they are few and far between, but alas, they are as common on the roads as the limited roads sign posts. It makes me realise just what I'm facing everyday, and they are a stark and real warning for me to keep alert and vigilant, and to concentrate on where I'm going and what I'm doing. I don't let them stop me from enjoying the views and scenery, but they still keep me fully aware of the situation, and how quickly things can change.

Absolutely, we must always be aware of what's around us. When we're on a bike or motorcycle, we're almost invisible to everyone around us. Be safe!!

Man this reminds me of when we moved to Minnesota, and changed our drivers licenses.... One of the questions on the test was How many feet away are you supposed to be when passing a bicycalist? ......answwer 2 feet......2 feet??!!! I got this question wrong, I answered 6 feet.......wow 2 feet.... I am also very aware when around motorcycalists, man you guys hit a pebble at 55 miles an hour, and you can flip the bike....it dont take much.... be careful when riding!

Wow, that really brings the reality of the dangers home, doesn't it? Those sketches would make me more careful, for sure. Jo
