What do you do you do if your motorcycle chain snaps while riding on the highway?

You’re speeding at 100km/h on a worn-out chain? It’s kinda your fault really.

In this case:

Relax.

What happens if someone fills up their car at the pump but leaves without paying? How is this situation typically handled?

Two scenarios could happen here.

Don’t ride a heavy bike.

Use both of your brakes to slow down, and finally pull over.

Was Daenerys' downfall inevitable after she left Meereen in Game of Thrones?

Did that catch you by surprise?

Going back to your scenario 2, your rear wheel is locked up. Relax, and let your muscles remember what to do.

The guy on the left is the one with a working motorcycle, he’s the one pushing the other guy.

Why is my ex trying to provoke an argument with me?

Yes, lock it up.

Anyway, depending on your speed you can still control that skid.

Learn it with a mountain bike, or even a BMX. Or a smaller displacement bike.

What is your secret to glowing skin?

Now, do the skids as many times as you can. Make skid marks, and do a full cornering drift. Anything, really, and just have fun with it.

Turn on your flashers, and signal to pull over to the right. Use your right hand if you need to.

Try to increase your speed before initiating a skid.

Are LGBT people accepted in Japan?

This is where practicing some skids and drifts would come in handy.

Scenario 1:

On an empty road, much easier if it’s some kind of rough road. Some dust, rubble, or even sand could make the practice easier. Actually, sand would make it hard if you don’t have enough power.

If freedom of speech is absolute, how come it's not applied for private spaces and for the Internet?

On varying speeds, start with 10 km/h. Purposely lock up your rear wheel.

Now that you have learned it. The muscle memory should kick in once the scenario calls for it.

What’s the practice?

The thing is, your rear wheel will lock up, and you’re skidding and fishtailing, and all sorts of things.

You just quit twisting the throttle, you can’t do anything there anyway.

Now, increase the weight, try it on a motorcycle.

Why do liberals think it is okay to steal votes while the rest of us obey the law(s)?

Focus your gaze up ahead, look as straight as you can. There’s no point in looking at your skidding tire. You can check your mirrors, but the action of skidding itself is warning enough for the other people following you. Unless they are blind, then you’re dead.

This could be tiring, but it’s doable. And you need to have a strong leg.

Scenario 2:

My landlord just sold the house I’m renting from her. She included all fixtures, that I bought and installed. Does she have this right?

Look at your side mirrors, and check for possible overtakers behind you.

And at this point, you really can’t do anything about whatever I’m going to write here. What it will take is some practice and muscle memory.

So I had to push him. The same way is shown in the picture.

Democrat voters, why are you so naive, easy to manipulate, can't see a liar standing right in front of you and why won't you research your party? You will find they have a plan for all W. Nations and it's evil.

Remember that tip on calling a friend?

The chain flies away, and your engine doesn’t have a connection to the rear wheel.

Don’t try to squeeze the clutch either, nothing you can do about it. So don’t even try to change gears, but I do understand that sometimes it’s a force of habit.

The chain got jammed between the swing arm and the sprocket, or Anywhere for that matter.

I remember doing this once with my friend. The exact same thing happened to him. His drive chain just snapped and quit, and his rear wheel locked up.

In that case, just pray and repent your sins.

And at that point, depending of your speed, you also need some kind of luck.

You can only do this up to 20km/h. Anything faster than that, you’re just calling for another more fatal accident. But hey, I’m not saying it’s impossible.

If you have an extra chain, I assume you know how to fit a new one into your bike. Do it. If not, call a tow truck. Calling a friend is exciting too. I’ll tell you why in a moment.

First, relax.
