Well, this is my experience at the gap. I dropped my bike. I was going over to visit the Canadians, (didnt want Range to get lonely) and as I got off the bike, my foot hit gravel and well the bike started going and then over it went. Dammit! Of course it had to happen in front of about 7 people. All the canadians of course. Didnt I feel like an embarassed arse. So now I have a few scratches that several folks have told me give the bike character.
I will say that I didnt ride to much after that. I was very intimidated by all the roads up there. As everyone knows I am very new to riding and with the roads being very wet most of the time, I just didnt feel comfortable. Also after that late night ride in the fog, with shield up eatin bugs at 10mph around curvy wet roads, my confidence was a little shaken. I will get better it will just take some time. By the way, Thanks Zleviticus for sticking with me during the photo shoot to keep everyone off my rear. I was a nervous wreck during that. You made it easier. Everyone I met this past weekend was really great. I couldnt ask for a better bunch to spend time with. I cant wait til next year.
