I don't ride things with motors and fewer than 3 wheels.
It's not the motorcycle that's untrustworthy, it's me and my highly questionable choices. When I was young and riding my bicycle, I became curious enough to stick my foot on my front wheel to see if I could manually brake like that. Of course I instead got my foot lodged inside the yoke and ended up limping my bike home with a concussion.
The concern is never if I'll let the intrusive thought take over, it's merely what will the context be.
I remember having that same thought the first time I was going faster than 35 on my scoot. I had to fight that intrusive thought.
Drinking gives me nightmarish acid reflux, so I'm always absurdly sober. Obviously alcohol is your superpower.
My superpower is taking enough medications and talking to enough therapists that I don't act on every intrusive thought and stopped actively trying to kill myself.
