If/when I need to get over a mental hiccup, or fix something with my technique there is always one thing that works for me. A LONG SOLO RIDE. I set out for 4-500 miles and tell myself this ride won't exceed 75% of normal pace. It takes all the pressure off...no one behind or in front to worry about...the pace is relaxed...adrenaline is low. I can then focus on riding smoothly and fix whatever problem I was having. By the time I get home, my pace is way up (yeah, that 75% doesn't last for the whole ride) and it feels effortless. I am smoothly gliding through corners and having fun, which is why I ride in the first place.2 points

Whenever someone goes down, I think the natural reaction to be more cautious. But if every time you ride, you are overly concerned about going down...you will & you probably aren't going to enjoy riding very much. Focus on doing the right things, not on what you are trying to avoid. I am not going to analyze the video. But I'll say that even if you do all the right things you can still go down. You just need to put the odds in your favor as much as possible. Practice your technique until you feel it's perfect, then practice it some more. Ride with a margin of error. If you encounter an obstacle mid corner do you know what you are going to do to best avoid it? Wear gear. It sucks when a motorcycle gets totaled, but it's just a motorcycle. There are plenty of others out there.2 points

Charge the zombies with disorderly conduct (their instructions stated not to block traffic). Charge the driver with assault with a deadly weapon (a car should never be used in that manner).2 points

No offense but it must suck to live in fear to where your anxiety is that bad without some form of weapon on you. I don't understand that kind of thought process. Unless you're just kidding. I mean if they are metal detecting everyone doesn't that imply nobody will have a gun in there which means if you got in some sort of confrontation all it could end up is coming to blows? Unless you fear putting up your dukes???1 point

Couldn't have said it better myself. I'll be back on two wheels. This won't deter me just makes me want to get better. Just goes to show you that no matter how good you think you are you cAn always be better and safer. Hopefully I'll be back for the fall epic ride, otherwise, they'll have a full organizer lol1 point

OK, I said I wouldn't analyze the video, but since you brought it up I agree with what you are saying here. If you were riding the outside line (hugging the double yellow) until the apex of the decreasing radius you may have had a better angle to get through it ok. You wouldn't have needed to turn as sharply when you got to the gravel, so you wouldn't need as much traction to get through it. But, if you don't know the road how can you know it's a decreasing radius turn until you see it? I will say from the video I can't tell exactly where the gravel is, so I could be completely wrong. Hindsight, armchair quarterback, internet-know-it-all, etc...On a unfamiliar road, you pretty much have to treat all blind corners as decreasing radius turns. Stay as far outside as possible (outside of the turn not outside of the lane), and look as far through the turn as possible until you have a line of sight. Derek, If I were you, I'd head right back to that same corner when you're back on 2 wheels1 point

Unless you're thinking the Junkies. I'm friends with many there too and they are knit like us...... But I know there can be minor issues there. Not everybody is lovable on both sides of the fence like the magically delicious midget leprechaun1 point

No idea how they could figure it out either. We can't even find a plane on this planet, how are we supposed to decipher a radio signal from space.1 point

The Chapal at The University of Dayton is undergoing a $12 million renovation that includes the removal of the 1920s Wangerin pipe organ My son works for the pipe organ service company that has the task of removing all the lead pipe or "whistles" All their other helpers were on vacation so I helped out this weekend Very high quality wooden boxes are actually highly tuned whistles Just one of the 20+ crates of whistles we've removed so far My son amongst a room of pipes that we need to carefully remove as they're made from lead, soft lead1 point
