by Kim Oh
At the bottom of the ramp, the stoplight shone red as I hurtled toward it – worse, there was a near-solid stream of traffic in the surface street beyond. If I’d backed off my throttle, the Challenger would be on top of me.
Instead, I sped up, pressing myself flat against the bike’s gas tank and urging the last bit of power out of the engine screaming beneath me. I spotted a gap in the street traffic, or at least the nearest lane of it, that might be just big enough for me to thread the bike’s needle through – or it would be if none of the vehicles’ drivers glanced over and saw me racing banshee-like down the off-ramp, toward them. If any of them panicked and slammed on their brakes, or swerved or took any kind of evasive action, I’d be screwed. You don’t walk away from a tumbling hit like that.
I lucked out. Either none of them caught sight of me, or their reaction times weren’t quick enough to do anything about it.
The gap was almost two car lengths wide as I hit the bottom of the ramp’s curve, straightened the bike up, and shot past the stoplight. That would’ve been a lot of room, with a couple yards of clearance on either side, if the vehicles had been stopped or even just crawling along. But the street traffic was coming from the underpass below the freeway at about thirty miles per hour, which tightened things up for me – a lot. I had to aim the Ninja at a white delivery van’s rear bumper, clear it with a couple of inches to spare from my right footpeg, then get my rear wheel across the street divider just before the vertical mass of an eighteen-wheeler could clip the bike and send me flying . . .
