3) City street, coming in too hot for a sharp sweeping right, not sure if I hit sand or oil, lost the angle, flew wide, came so close to the oncoming traffic vehicles stopped at the light I could read the VIN numbers on the dash of the honda I almost hit as well as the guys facial expression! I was shaking so hard when I got to the house right up the street I couldnt get off my bike.

Thats just a couple of the most memorable...

I've hit gravel and lost traction too many times to count, only one time ended up in a crash.

tar snakes were quite a shock the first HOT day i rode the twisties. and howabout when you first get stuck in a highway rut and it feels like you're loosing control? ha, i love all that stuff.
