Was pissing down with rain and I went on a roundabout at like 5-10mph and the bike just dissapeared away from under me. Nasty scratches and a broken indicator was the only damage except my high beam is my low beam and my low beam is something entirely different. Confused

So at the moment I have a phobia of turns, other cars, roundabouts and my breaks. When it goes down now I just think "shit, not again"

Yeah I'm good, not a scratch, starting to think I'm running out of lives or I should join the circus as a stuntman/clown and get paid to do it.

I have exactly the same thing at the moment after I came off last week. I keep getting the feeling the tyres are slipping, even in dry. I've become even more cautios and I think that's making me worse, like when your carefully walking on ice and thats when you fall.

I suppose I just have to keep at it until I'm riding the way I was before ie confident.

I got my knee down in the pissing rain on Friday after work. I think crashing's just a combination of bad tyres and roads. Don't be too scared, some of us crash in the dry Very Happy
