What’s the most annoying thing anyone can do on a ride?There must be lots of things, but riding along with a blinker on has to be at the top of the list.
I can be struggling to get through a tank-deep wallow of bulldust on the edge of a cliff and pursued by slathering death adders, and if the rider in front of me has left the blinker on since the last turn, that’s what I’ll be pissed off about.
Why is that, I wonder? Why is it that with all the potential dramas we face on a ride, it’s often really inconsequential things that make us burn?For me it’s a real problem when I’m tired, and that’s something I’ve learned to look for in myself, because fatigue is a serious and insidious problem.
