We should all learn from our own mistakes; we all make them. It's even better if we learn from someone else's mistakes, which is why these tales can have value. What turned me (and evidently a few others) off is that almost every single paragraph has this form:
- I did something really stupid
- I didn't think it was that stupid, and you shouldn't either
- Nothing too bad happened, so I guess it was OK
You seem to seeing some contrition or understanding in there that I'm missing - but it doesn't come through for me no matter how many times I read it. Check out the last section in particular - he's heavily damaged his 2 month old bike, yet he believes it might be riding better now after bouncing it off the ground a few times.
