(Not to mention that there's less exhaust to smell too. :P)<br /> But don't ride faster than u can brake or u'll be asking for it. :)</p> Fri, 22 Aug 2008 23:34:43 +0800 www.sgforums.com:1276:328178:8337565 uuei http://www.sgforums.com/forums/1276/topics/328178 <p>Ride bike slower and safer.

It was amber lights, and the rider brake while the driver behind her accelerated to beat the amber light.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Just now while riding, I heard a brake screeching sound and then a loud skidding sound&nbsp;from a bike. The sound was for 2 to 3&nbsp;seconds, not split seconds, that means the bike really skdding quite a distance!&nbsp;My eyes quickly hunt for the source of the sound and from my mirror, I saw a bike&nbsp;skidding behind me with the rider tumbling on the road. The bike eventually slammed onto a car's rear while rider rolled into the middle of the road. It was freaky as&nbsp;there was no cars behind that bike and the car which the bike slammed into was quite far ahead of it. Dunno what happen but can't stop by the flyover to check things out. It was also dizzling.</p> <p>I have been caught in the rain suddenly these few days while riding.</p> <p>Feel like its a sign warning me about riding...<img src= "/images/emoticons/kde-3.5.8/KMess-Cartoon/ugly.png" alt= "ugly.png" />..dam...</p> Fri, 22 Aug 2008 22:37:06 +0800 www.sgforums.com:1276:328178:8337467 Troy437 http://www.sgforums.com/forums/1276/topics/328178 <p>think too much la...</p> Thu, 14 Aug 2008 00:56:30 +0800 www.sgforums.com:1276:327117:8312399 icYwATeR http://www.sgforums.com/forums/1276/topics/327117 <p>its an old wives tale / supersition. jus let it be.</p> Thu, 14 Aug 2008 00:50:37 +0800 www.sgforums.com:1276:327117:8312390 skeujin http://www.sgforums.com/forums/1276/topics/327117 <p>Anyone got anything else abt this to add on?</p> Thu, 14 Aug 2008 00:48:18 +0800 www.sgforums.com:1276:327117:8312387 Troy437 http://www.sgforums.com/forums/1276/topics/327117 <blockquote> <div class="quote_from">Originally posted by Troy437:</div> <div class="quote_body"> <p><br /> uh?
