I think you're completely wrong regarding 'counter steering'. I first learned how to 'counter steer' on my bicycle when I was very young. I later transferred that same skill to riding a motorcycle. And you know what? I'd never even heard of counter steering until quite recently. Counter steering is intuitive. It isn't learned in the classroom, it's learned out there on the street and as the old saying goes, 'once you've learned how to ride a bicycle, you never forget'. I think it's nonsense to think that a rider would steer the wrong way in a curve because he didn't know how to 'counter steer'.

High speed was quoted by a witness to the accident so unlike you, I'm not speculating. And as much as I like the PCX (I ride a scooter myself) speed wise it is no match for a Honda CB650R.

3 years ago contractors came along, without warning and installed a 100 meter long drainage ditch through the village. We didn't have a big problem with drainage, rainwater quickly ran off down to the river anyway. The ditch doesn't work. Instead of channeling water off the street, it fills up with water and so we're now left with a 100 meter long mosquito breeding trough. The next rainy season that came along the village had its first Dengue outbreak in 6 years, including me and nothing has been done about it since. The public education system hasn't worked here!

I've been riding, on and off, since I was 17. I'm now 77 and enjoy my riding at least as much, possibly more so than I did when I was young and I certainly do not have a 'death wish'. Ok, so I may come to grief one day despite my experience and the attention that I apply when riding, but so what. As said I'm 77 and I'm going to die of something before too long anyway, so I might just as well get out there on my bike and enjoy myself whilst I can.

'Immediately realizing the situation, Ms. Jarin quickly ran to unplug the charger and notified the authorities for assistance'. Well done Ms Jarin for your quick and correct response.

A completely pointless survey, if one can call it that.

If one can meet the financial requirements, getting a retirement extension is a doddle. No need for agents at all. If one can't meet the financial requirements then they should go look elsewhere to retire,

I agree. I think I may have had Covid, but never tested to see if the very mild symptoms where, in fact C19. But I know I've had Dengue, it was bloody awful!

Early hours of the morning, powerful motorcycle, high speed. It all adds up doesn't it. 'And another one bites the dust'. It used to be a regular occurrence on London's North Circular Road as well. I don't know whether it still happens there.

I never keep my passbook up to date, which is why I always present the IO with bank statements. And I didn't need an agent to work that out for me either.

I made reference to that problem earlier. See this article on the BBC.

Well, don't all rush at once, but if you want some clean air come to the north east. I've lived up here, just east of Sakon Nakhon for 5 years now and I've noticed that there has been far less burning and a noticeable increase in the use of mechanized farming methods. Our air quality isn't always this good, but neither does become too bad. It is quite rare to see it rise beyond 'satisfactory'. I've also seen an increase in the use of solar panels to drive field irrigation pumps, replacing the old 'iron buffalo' method. So change does happen, albeit very slowly, but it's interesting to note these improvements are taking place in the poorer rural areas and I should note that we do not have any sugar cane farming in this area, thank goodness. Advocates of the use solar panels, commendable though it may be, might want to read this article on the BBC web site. It ain't all good news.

You have to be the first person that I've come across who considers atheism to be 'blind faith'. In just about every encounter that I've had on this topic. Atheism its the very antithesis of blind faith. Religion is the obvious candidate for bearing that label. Atheists will generally have considered the religious option and rejected it. Being an atheist does not necessarily mean that that one has no interest in spirituality. I am an atheist, who meditates twice a day. What does that make me do you suppose? There are many paths up the mountain.

There are on line pharmacies in Thailand. Have you explored that possibility?

That's not 'seeing proof' of reincarnation, you have simply seen a person who believes in reincarnation. (and there are plenty of those around) The current Dalai Lama was selected from a short list of candidates, all born around the same time, at the age of 2 after he correctly identified objects, formally belonging to his predecessor. Surely that's nothing more than a game of chance, given that a boy of 2 would hardly be able to understand what the 'game' was all about. Purely by chance, Tenzin Gyatso simply chose more correct objects than his rivals.

How does one 'see proof' of reincarnation?

Best we leave that for the pathologist eh?

Probably of more relevance than the water is that all three of them were alleged drug abusers. 'According to Sanook, Lek had just been released from prison for a drug-related offence three months ago. Moreover, both Naruemon and Kanokpong were alleged drug users'.

Yes I agree with that. As a motorcyclist myself I always prefer a pedestrian simply to stop. If space permits I will steer round behind them. I recall from my early days being taught never to run across the road. 'Walk, don't run' was the mantra if I recall correctly. If the road is so busy that you feel compelled to run, then it's not safe to do so. That's always stuck in my mind.

I'd say very much an amateur. One who didn't realize that bullets fired from a hand gun through a toughened windscreen will flatten and be considerably slowed down. That's probably why the victim survived.

Sure looks like a Yamaha R15 150cc to me. My wife's nephew has one and I've had a couple of rides on it myself. Granted an unusual bike for the women to be riding, but why shouldn't a Burmese lady be a biking enthusiast?

Of course you do, there's nothing supernatural about that.

The difference being that the 3rd Law of Motion has many practical uses.

There is zero evidence of that: 'A U.S. military spokesman in Iraq had no immediate comment. At the time of his capture, U.S. commanders said a source close to the fugitive had given him up under interrogation'. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-iraq-saddam-geller-idUSL0669865120061107
