1) Was coming down a rural road, was still a straightliner at the time, it was fairly curvy, hit a tree branch in the road, both wheels came off the ground, instinct kicked in, grabbed the clutch, hit the ground and kept rolling.

2) Coming into a 90 degree left turn, hit sand or dirt on the road, completely tucked the front end, brought it back up, road to a stop and freaked out. My big brother came back to get me as he saw the headlight tuck and thought i was done. Scary, but I made it!

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...
