(gentle music)
00:02
I got into riding because my brother used to ride
00:06
and after he had an accident, a group of friends and I,
00:09
we decided to fix his bike and we registered
00:13
and I've been riding ever since.
00:14
So riding for me was a chance to get away from my job.
00:21
It was away from the emails, the calls, the messages,
00:25
and just a time to be by myself and reflect.
00:29
So my friends and I still ride together today
00:31
and I guess it's a chance for us to bond
00:34
and just be out together on the road.
00:36
So my crash really impacted my life.
00:43
Heading through an intersection,
00:44
I misread a driver's intentions and we collided head on.
00:47
So lying on the ground, I felt helpless.
00:53
You're lying there, you're thinking to yourself,
00:56
you know, am I gonna make it?
00:57
Is this the time for me?
00:59
And what of my family, what of my friends?
01:02
During my recovery, I realized that I can't change the past.
01:11
It was more about defensive riding and changing my mindset.
01:14
Safety is paramount.
01:16
Gear is crucial, motorcycle gear is always crucial
01:19
and I always take it one step further by wearing high-vis.
01:23
It made me appreciate the preciousness of time
01:26
with my friends, my family, and even myself.
01:30
For me, at the end of the day,
01:31
I think it's just about coming home safe to my family.
