I ride my motorcycle fairly fast. In towns and around built up places I slow down and take it easy. I slow down for corners whilst my mates zoom around them with abandon and I won't put myself into positions where if 'I' mess up I could be hurt or killed or do harm to others. But on bigger open roads and motorways I ride fast with little regard for my or others safety. If that car pulls out on me, if the rabbit runs out, if that manhole is slippy and I crash then it's out of my hands, act of God and all that, and it will happen so fast I won't know it happened so why care.
I have four smashing Children who I love, my Family are great and I love my Girlfriend with all my heart.
In the past I have self harmed and I have had suicidal urges, which I have associated with my riding habits, but I don't feel that way anymore but still I put myself in this situation. It's not just on bikes, I do it in my car too but it's not as extreme a sensation.
Am I just an andrenaline junkie?
