    Concrete is worse the 30 grit sandpaper and when rubbed, you wont get that skin back.....

        1. When lowsiding, let go...don't try to hold it up. The broken arm isn't worth it.

        2. Wet (rain) paint is slick.

        3. Some cagers who are the cause of your crash even though they didn't hit you are clueless that they should get out of the car to help you and make sure you are all right (the guy who I thought was going to turn in front of me couldn't leave fast enough).

        4. Crashes can humble you pretty quick.

          Was out riding last night and turned a corner that I usually take nicely and there happened to be a bit of little chunks of gravel there. The front tire lost traction and starter to side slip. I was visualizing my recovery form the total fall while going thru the turn. I recovered the slip but not after the adrenlin was coarsing through me.......

          I will now take all corners with more caution. Do not want to be a Katana sandwich.....

            Ditto. Stay off the lines when it's raining.
