When I was a kid, I always thought it was a very respectable thing to see other people riding motorcycles. Especially in the movies and TV shows, I see some of the riders’ stunt performances, the motorcycle in the hands of the riders play the magic, I feel more thrilling and magical, admiration arises naturally.
Riding a motorcycle is beautiful, but it is really a dangerous sport. Remember the last century in the 1980s, motorcycles just popular in society, at that time if who has a motorcycle, it is a very great thing. The average family only has a bicycle, only the well-off can afford a motorcycle.
In that year, a teacher in our village got married and bought a “Jialing” car. One day, when he was on the next steep slope, his sight was blocked and he collided head-on with a car of Dongfeng brand on the uphill slope. In a few seconds of life and death, “Jialing” and “Dongfeng” each other to avoid, at the same time turned left, at the same time turned right, finally can not avoid, resulting in a tragedy. The young teacher blood flow Yin ground, perishes on the spot, let a person sigh.
In the 1990s, more and more people rode motorcycles around me. In rural areas, every household bought a motorcycle. From the 60-year-old man to the teenage child, the motorcycle could ride the horse and slide around. During this period, there were many more motorcycle brands, such as Yamaha, Qianjiang, Prince, Honda, Haojue… All kinds of things. Although I learned to ride a bike when I was in elementary school, I didn’t really learn to ride a motorcycle until I was in my 20s. Before I rode the motorcycle, I was still mentally nervous.
Once, I saw with my own eyes a young man riding a motorcycle, almost fell into a concrete ridge. The young man tried his skill for the first time, but he was also brave enough to borrow a motorcycle and ride it. When he turned the throttle, the motorcycle went out like an arrow. The young man was caught off guard and wanted to stop, but he kept twisting his hand on the accelerator. He shouted “Hey!” but the motorcycle didn’t listen to him. He growled like a wild animal. At that critical moment, the young man’s car head a slanting, hit a small mound on the side of the road, a person turned over, finally saved the danger, side of us but watched with horror.
I bought a prince before I got married, but I don’t know how to ride it. Uncle brother is a motorcycle driver, I asked him the essentials of riding a motorcycle, he simply introduced to me how to shift, how to step on the brake, throttle and clutch how to work with such skills. In an empty road, in the side of the elder brother’s care, I began to practice riding a motorcycle. At first some unfamiliar, turned off twice, and then gradually smoothly, after all, there was a bicycle to master the balance of some of the foundation, again and again to practice for two or three days, they finally become skilled.
Looking back on it now, it would have been very convenient to learn to ride a motorcycle if there had been a flat surface. At the beginning of learning to drive, I am not skilled in turning skills, once in the roadside turn, put the clutch, the speed is too fast, I have no time to brake, the motorcycle crashed into the roadside bushes, I fell down with the car, the body of the car pressed on my leg. Finally he pulled himself up and, with a great deal of effort, moved the motorcycle back onto the road. I sigh with emotion, the ancients said “look at flowers easy to embroider difficult”, is really a good!
When riding a motorcycle ninja 250, rain and snow weather should pay special attention to, when it rains, encounter some muddy roads in the countryside, the tires are particularly easy to slip, and many times have to gear down. For this reason, I have suffered a loss, slip on the dirt road twice. In winter, when the weather is freezing and the roads are icy, cyclists have to tread with extreme caution. I’ve seen bike after bike fall on the streets in the city.
Now with the improvement of people’s living standard, many families have bought cars. Some people laugh that in the past it was “man wrapped iron”, but now it is “iron wrapped man”. The two really cannot be compared with each other. People enjoy the convenience brought by modern transportation tools. At the same time, a large number of electric cars appear, and motorcycles seem to gradually fade out of people’s sight. However, in the era when motorcycles were popular, some good memories always stay in our minds, which will never fade away.
