Hello. You have to start somewhere and today it is the gripe I have with car drivers who use mobile phones. You see I ride a bike - a Yamaha Faser 600cc. When rididng a bike you are invisible. Bike riders are like Neo in the Matrix. We see the working of the Matrix while cardrivers live in it. We are more aware of what is going on around us. The problem arise that when car drivers use mobile phones the become doubly deficient in sense. They do not drive on a straight line - particularly in heavy traffic. This means any bike driving at speed in the middle of the road is liable to be hit. I urge all car drivers to wake up and not use their phone while driving. To be on the safe side theyshould also turn off their radios, make sure no-one sayas a word when they are driving and keep two hands on the steering wheels at all times.

Anyway, this is my start - you may read about other things that bother me - my life, my thoughts, everything - but then again this could be the first & last - who knows?
