When I was a lot younger (about 4 or 5) I used to have a lot of dreams that reoccurred unbelievably often and were so vivid and memorable that I still remember them very well to this day so I thought I would share them with you guys This one is about one of my favourite childhood hobbies: riding my bike! The dream began with me riding around a dirt track with other riders, but I do not know who they were even though they had no helmets on, I suppose I just did not pay attention to them when I had this dream. The track looked like a track for actual motocross bikes with engines and, although we were only riding pedal bikes, we went as fast as motocross bikes without much effort. The 'climax' of the dream I suppose happened when the riders in the race undertook a huge jump from a ramp. I still remember the run of the track up to the jump (random input here: it is quite coincidental that at this point my profile picture is me on a motorbike ) The track was straight until a sharp right which we always flew around easily, then a few humps which were also easily navigated, then a steep hill climb with a sharp left at the top and a huge, steep downhill with an upward flick and sheer drop at the end. The end of this steep downhill run was framed by a metal gateway covered in posters advertising biking companies (even though I did not know any), similar to what you would see on a motocross track. As I navigated the run up to the jump, I could always see the people in front launching off this ramp and literally flying. Also, the drop at the end of the ramp was huge, the air was massive. Once I reached the top of the downhill, I always bombed down it as fast as I could go, which was considerably speedy with dream-powered legs Then I launched of the ramp and got that churning clenching feeling in my gut that you always feel when you are falling or you drop unexpectedly or even if you are walking upstairs in the dark and think there is one more step than there actually is and your foot falls through the air without meeting resistance. I am sure you know what I am getting out, pretty much everyone will have experienced what I mean. Anyway, this feeling was so strong in the dream as I plummeted from the ramp. I do not know why but I think you were supposed to fly at the end of the ramp and every time I did not, I just dropped like that. At this point I would always wake up feeling exhilarated and pumped with adrenaline but most of all terrified. Hope you enjoyed my description of my dream, I think I will post a couple more so check them out too if you have the time. Cheers
