Combination of the dreaded early morning damp road and sand nearly got me coming off a roundabout.

Someone had dropped some sand across the exit and I didn't see it till I was ontop of it (it was still dark). F'k me the front wheel nearly got the better of me, luckily I wasn't going too quick and I just about managed to catch it before I bit the black stuff it's the closest I've come to getting a peg down Shocked
Bloody great wagon right up my arse too which didn't help especially when he bipped his horn at me, for f'k sake man I was having a trouser smudgin moment and all he could do is bip his horn 'cause he had to slow down.

Take it easy out their folks it ain't nice, I know I will be Angelic

If you had of been on a bike that didn't have a 21" front wheel, lots of suspension and 36" handlebars, I suspect you would have landed on your arse. Yey for big trailies.

Definitely sounds like a touching cloth moment there mate, nice to know the driver was glad to see you didn't go down Evil or Very Mad. The roads are unbelievably greasy at the moment. Spun the rear wheel up big-time the other day, noticed the revs jump from 4K to about 12K and thought "WTF!". Was my own fault really, filtered to the front of some traffic and I had to get in front quick when the lights changed, would of made more sense to just wait.

I suspect your right, the bars give you plenty of leverage to haul it back up but only bloody just !! It still scared the pants off me it's been a long time since I've hit the tarmac and I was damned if this morning was going to be my reunion Laughing

Slow and steady tomorrow !

well, except for the straight bits Wink
