We should all listen to our intuition while riding. But what does that mean? Intuition is understanding something instinctively. It’s the direct knowledge of something without the conscious use of reason — like a sixth sense, a gut feeling. It can sometimes be a feeling of foreboding, like something is not quite right, and it can be extremely valuable — but only if you listen to it. There are countless people who have faced precarious riding situations, crashes, got lost, got attacked — any number of things — who said they hadn’t followed their intuition.
