How to commute right.

  1. That's why there are single vehicle motorcycle fatalities.

  2. Once I hit an oil slick, invisible on the asphalt, while I was making a turn in town & hardly moving. Bike went right out from underneath me, leaving me unhurt but facing a wall of traffic.

    Luckily for me, I didn't get run over. My biggest problem was trying to pull the bike back up, when I had a hard time even standing on that slick surface! But every time I see a photo of a bike leaned over like this, I think of that oil slick- and what might have happened, if I'd been going fast.

    Don't think I want to take that chance anymore; but it was sure fun when I was younger!

  3. Regardless of the danger, the photo does capture the essence of THRILL.

  4. That IS how to commute. So...when are you going to join the club and buy a Ducatti? I suggest the Diavel.
