Yes I decided on the life of a professional motorcyle road racer and entered my first race. I crashed on the first turn of the first lap at 110 MPH and spent 18 months in a cast.


That aside, I have never heard of a dying soul who wished on his deathbed for more money, more security, or more stuff. It doesn't work that way. So I take every chance I get, within reason. I don't regret the motorcyle decsion, it makes good cocktail party conversation to explain why I still limp sometimes, even though it turned out I obviously sucked at it.
