Ride Safe!!

08-20-2007, 12:07 AM

Was talking today to Blowndodge about twistys, blind turns, riding safely.... I mentioned I always take tight curves that I can't see around as if there's a stalled truck right around the corner....

I remember reading Larry Grotsky's column every month in Rider magazine.... Larry was the "Safe Riding Guru"......

I thought you had a little Yul Brunner in you!

Or was it Charlton Heston?

good attitude on corning Nico. I always assume there's trouble around a sharp/blind curve.

A lot of irony going on there and a real tragedy. I always say a prayer when I get on my bike and ask for Angels to be with me and those with whom I 'm riding for protection. Just goes to show you that you can never get too comfortable on two wheels. Please be safe. IDaho

Yeah, while riding in Japan, a buddy of mine about got decapitated by a blind curve with a trailer with long wooden planks!
