What do you do you do if your motorcycle chain snaps while riding on the highway?

If you have an extra chain, I assume you know how to fit a new one into your bike. Do it. If not, call a tow truck. Calling a friend is exciting too. I’ll tell you why in a moment.

And at that point, depending of your speed, you also need some kind of luck.

Focus your gaze up ahead, look as straight as you can. There’s no point in looking at your skidding tire. You can check your mirrors, but the action of skidding itself is warning enough for the other people following you. Unless they are blind, then you’re dead.

Is the Philippines PH a poor 3rd world or 4th world country forever and forever?

And at this point, you really can’t do anything about whatever I’m going to write here. What it will take is some practice and muscle memory.

What’s the practice?

This could be tiring, but it’s doable. And you need to have a strong leg.

How come Taiwan is LGBT friendly, yet Japan and South Korea are not?

You’re speeding at 100km/h on a worn-out chain? It’s kinda your fault really.

Use both of your brakes to slow down, and finally pull over.

Yes, lock it up.

Why do people still think Michael Jackson was guilty?

The chain got jammed between the swing arm and the sprocket, or Anywhere for that matter.

Try to increase your speed before initiating a skid.

On varying speeds, start with 10 km/h. Purposely lock up your rear wheel.

What happened to everybody's thick skin? It used to be that people really didn't get offended, now however, everybody gets offended by the least little thing.

You just quit twisting the throttle, you can’t do anything there anyway.

On an empty road, much easier if it’s some kind of rough road. Some dust, rubble, or even sand could make the practice easier. Actually, sand would make it hard if you don’t have enough power.

Going back to your scenario 2, your rear wheel is locked up. Relax, and let your muscles remember what to do.

Two scenarios could happen here.

Now, do the skids as many times as you can. Make skid marks, and do a full cornering drift. Anything, really, and just have fun with it.

Now, increase the weight, try it on a motorcycle.

What are the logical reasons against requiring an ID to vote in the USA? If the government offered to provide IDs for this purpose I fail to see why people are against it.

Now that you have learned it. The muscle memory should kick in once the scenario calls for it.

The guy on the left is the one with a working motorcycle, he’s the one pushing the other guy.

Don’t ride a heavy bike.

Why are perceived or real slights interpreted as rejections and reality by pwBPD?

Anyway, depending on your speed you can still control that skid.

Turn on your flashers, and signal to pull over to the right. Use your right hand if you need to.

So I had to push him. The same way is shown in the picture.

Hello, I have a question about astral projection. I started to get interested in this a little while after my mum passed in april. I thought I may be able to see her and speak with her if I managed to achieve astral projection. Since this interest, every time i sleep on my back I go into sleep paralysis. However, I cant progress into astral projection because it is very scary for me as I feel like I'm suffocating when this happens. I panic and force myself to wake up. This only ever happened about once a year before this. It sometimes lasts a long time. This has happened about 3 times per week since my mum died, as mentioned on a previous post. I no longer try to go into it anymore(due to the suffocating feeling), but it still happens. I read that sleep paralysis is the pathway to astral projection. Why has this started to happen so frequently since simply taking an interest in it? Is this connected to the afterlife? I am concerned about it as I now cannot seem to stop this happening. Could it be my mum trying to communicate? Im asking due to more knowledge around this in this group.

Remember that tip on calling a friend?

I remember doing this once with my friend. The exact same thing happened to him. His drive chain just snapped and quit, and his rear wheel locked up.

First, relax.

What are the most common signs that a partner will cheat before it happens?

You can only do this up to 20km/h. Anything faster than that, you’re just calling for another more fatal accident. But hey, I’m not saying it’s impossible.

In this case:

The thing is, your rear wheel will lock up, and you’re skidding and fishtailing, and all sorts of things.

This is where practicing some skids and drifts would come in handy.

In that case, just pray and repent your sins.

The chain flies away, and your engine doesn’t have a connection to the rear wheel.

Liberals, why don't you like Conservatives?

Scenario 2:

Did that catch you by surprise?

Look at your side mirrors, and check for possible overtakers behind you.

Why would my ex block me after I blocked him?

Don’t try to squeeze the clutch either, nothing you can do about it. So don’t even try to change gears, but I do understand that sometimes it’s a force of habit.

Relax.

Scenario 1:

Learn it with a mountain bike, or even a BMX. Or a smaller displacement bike.
