@@cliveadams7629 correct - my only crash in 21 years was within 3 months of starting my moto life. I was riding at 90% and had to deal with bicycles and incomming cars in my lane. I chose the dirt rather than head on collision. No bicycles stopped to check on me. They were in a pack of 500 and riding 6 wide - taking over the car lane. You can’t see things coming ahead of time so better to be prepared ahead of time - just in case.
@FreedomAintFree1 You should always be able to stop in the distance you can see ahead. You'll be faster slow into a corner and quick out than trying to carry too mush speed in and not being able to get on the gas soon enough. Ayrton Senna said it best- slow in the slow bits, fast in the fast bits.
Wise words
Everyone makes mistakes, you have to be ready to cover the cock-ups of others. You should never be 100% all out on a public road.
