I never intended to learn to drive a motorcycle. I lived in Thailand for an entire year when I was 26 and far more adventurous and far less concerned with my own mortality. During all that time I never bothered to learn. It was a handy excuse when someone was needed to run errands during rush hour or during monsoon season. I didn’t really miss the independence, as everywhere I wanted to go was a cheap motorcycle taxi ride away. […]
