All the more reason to be careful
Reply Quote
I rode to work today it was cloudy and threating to rain. As I left work I was hoping the rain held of at least the 1/2 hour it took me to get home. I went through the intersection at the local exxon station about 11 miles from my home about 1/2 way home I passed a couple on a Goldwing heading toward the intesection I had just went through. It was about then I discovered I had no back brakes at all ( the pin had fell out of the brake rod at the pivot.) So I had to finish the ride home on front brakes only and go a lot slower. As I pulled into the driveway my wife Brenda was waiting on me ran up and said thank god your home. As we went into the house she explained that there was a bad motorcycle wreck at the intersection by the exxon station, a car had struck a motorcycle and it was very bad. She heard it on the scanner and since I was running about 15 minutes late she was worried. We later found out that both riders had to be air lifted to the the University hospital trama center. Its kinda scarey to think that I had went through that same intersection not 5 minutes earlier than that couple. I thank god that he was watching over me. Please all of you be careful out there and put in a word of prayer for the two rides injured in the accident .
May God Ride With Each and Everyone of you.

I'm working on that they must be locals because no one really rides that road unless they live in the area soon as I find out I let you all know .

Aye Hillbilly n' Brenda - I understand as I've had 3 heart attacks n' died 3 times - but still kicking 11 years later - with only a stint n' God's will - n' could go into many other very close calls - including the time I was visiting New York State (believe way back around 1972) n' drove  over a 150 foot cliff on an Indian Reservation at about 100 mph  as was told it was a drag strip - with 5 others in my ol' car - but all survived and again I thank God ..... so do believe HE has the master plan ........ and my number hasn't been called yet - er maybe the devil don't even want me either <grin> ....... Anyway - Life if what we make it - and again, at present state - I've lived 10 years n' 6 months longer than the 1st cardiologist told me ....... from which, I've also outlived him and yet another cardiologist ......... so the third is scared to see me ....... but such is life ~!!!!

Cheers, n' God Bless,

You know what they say, Bryan...only the good die young.  I have a strange feeling we'll be burying a lot of the good ones before we go!  Your outlook is worth more than anything medicine can give us.

This may be  best displayed offline !!!  - Hence I'm a little afraid to post ...... BUT for some strange reason God is bringing me to a lot of your posts tonight - so I'm rather concerned as I find his warnings very accurate to me ...... so I don't know all your postings or concerns but please try to condense them for me - as I do believe - n' know it comes out much stronger when I'm drinkin' n' listening to my country music - so as you may call me crazy - as you don't know me, nor me you ..... but I do know you also believe n' guess God understands believing over most everything ......... so take it with a grain of salt - er take it as you understand God talks to me  ?  ...... Aye, I'm a loner n' ol' biker who's lost a lot of friends over the years, as well as  most of my family - so I'm comforted with alcohol on weekends - but don't usuallly er never have before worried about somebody I don't even know ........ so, he's talking to me again - n' don't know where you live or whatever - but I see a yellow warning sign with a crossroads on it ....... Beware ...... ???????  Sorry, but I can't see any more tonight ........ maybe get more tomorrow ??????

WOW - hate to scare ya - but much rather warn ya ........... as I've pretty close to 90% accurate in my seeings - n' reason why I live alone - albeit with my Golden Lab buddy doggie "Buster" .... 

Cheers, n'' God  Bless .....

A Very - very interesting night - as  the puter  shut down during my last (very long) post  to you  - so again God  is working with us - as maybe he's telling me  I'm full of shit  n' just listen  ?????   Of which, I  very much should listen ...... yet know HE started this  in my head - n' guess HE''s also trying to protect me  - as I was kinda gettiing too deep into my past with Hell's Angels n''  Devil's Choice  - sobeit ...... this I hope will get through ..... as I'm still rather concerned n' starting to get staggerin'  drunk -  so I need help n' looking above ........

Oh shooot, I went beyond the point - n' can't really remember my last post ...... as I type as I see - n' now I see nothing -  but thinking back - still see the yellow sign ????   But do  recall a lot more to  warn ya ....... YET ...... God just told me you'll survive, with just a scratch on your elbow or shoulder though PLEASE DON'T  FORGET TO WEAR YOUR HELMET  - so believe or not - that's my vision !!!!!!!

God Bless, n' Happy Trails Ahead ...... as I really overall want to find you as another friend -

Aye, I'm  crazy - but still having  visions n' believe  your  in them for some reason ????    n' to enhance the yellow sign - I also see an  overpass  (sound familiar?????) ..... Hence: I sometimes hate to close my eyes as I see the future - but don't tell many - as surely know most would call me crazy - but again - i know i am ...... n' love my music n' life ......... so, if none of the yellow sign nor overpass is familiar - well God just wants me to find you as a friend  ??????  Hence: another reason why I'm listen to "Crazy" by Patsy Cline <LOL> !!!!

Cheers again n' God Bless -

Bryan n' my doggie  Buster is calling it another day !!!!!

I'm still kickin' .... albeit really drunk right now - so don't believe a word -- as I'm rebelling ...... n' the Devil wins !!!!  So, aye - you see I fight daily n' sometimes the devil wins (  esspecially after  115  brews) -= but mostly Godwins - n' my buddy "Buster" is calling me now to bed - but I still have another beer ....... n' listening to Stompin' Tom - so I'm back where I live ........ yet, agaiin was a very interesting night - as this is far from the first time that my so-called predictions came to fact .......... But mostly have found they work with people I just met or want to meet - n'' must admit that I'm looking at Hillbilly right now - so to stop any confussion !!!!

Cheers, n' God Bless .... Buster Brown  n' his buddy Bryan <grin>

Thanks n' now believe that my warnings are probably meant for myself - as I wake up every day a little slower, with ache's n' pains through my body and more unsteadiness in my arms and legs - along with less self confidence and thinking I need to medicate myself with alcohol ...... which is alright for the short term - but also know I'm taking a kicking in the long term ...... anyway - just my thought for today - though always best to be careful especially when riding !!!!

Cheers, n' Happy Trails ....
