Speed is undeniably intoxicating - demanding risk and courage and defiance of all our deep natural instincts of self-preservation and caution. Yet why is it so addictive, so alluring, its danger so seductive? We know it is, but why? Even those who play it safe must be in awe of the maniacal power and attraction there is in reckless speed. I will ponder this and I hope you do too.
