    gotta look out and engage brain. it's a bit like saying you can just step onto a zebra crossing without looking for traffic, after all they are supposed to stop for you...

    Then there are a lot more pedestrians who need to look before they leap than me.

    I have never had a proper crash, I have been a messenger and ridden brake less on the streets of London for the last 6 years. I have ridden in Japan, Milan, Frankfurt, Berlin and Paris (damn I rode to Paris from London twice brakeless)

    You can't appreciate how it is for me to ride in a city unless you ride the same bike as me or have the same background as me. Skateboarding had a big effect.

    Do you think skateboarders go around and follow the rules of society and just skate at designated spots...

    The fun of it is skating where you want to.

    If I thought I was really in danger, I'd never go outside my front door or move to a statistically safe part of the world on a Quantas aeroplane.

    I could go on, but I don't think you would ever get my point of view, because you are you and I am me.
