I kinda had one on the track, but not street.

Does it count as a high side if your bike managed to correct itself and ride away without you?

Mine was caused by a big puddle that had formed on the track that I hadn't seen in the previous laps while it was raining. Lost the rear in the puddle at full lean/knee almost on the ground, it caught as soon as I came out of the puddle and threw me off like a high side, but it corrected itself and rode down the straight into the mud and slowed to almost a stop and fell over. No damage whatsoever. I, however, flew through the air about 10 feet and landed on my face (full face helmet, got to watch the asphalt go by) and slid awhile.
