Too hot means your brain is probably freaked out but there is still plenty of tire traction available. LOOK through the corner, LEAN the bike until hard parts drag, BELIEVE in modern tire technology.

.

All true except for leaning the bike and dragging hard parts. That's old school and dangerous. Lean yourself off the bike so the bike can stay more upright.

I was looking for a picture of a scooter like that, but thought the old-man scooter was more his speed.

There was one girl who rode one that looks like the one on the right around campus last year and I always wanted to ride my bike up there to see if they would say anything. Like rode on sidewalks and chained it to light poles.

Sometime we crash because there is a douche in a dump just over the crest of a blind hill sitting still and is perpendicular to the road blocking all lanes of traffic.
