Who is still accident FREE??

[ChuckS]

I grabbed the front brake while doing a u-turn.  Bam!  Dumb nOOb mistake!  Total riding experience at the time about 30 miles.  Notes to self:  Never grab the front brake.  Never use the front while turning.  Take the MSF first.

My Vstrom gets tired & lays down a lot.  I take her out & give her a workout on the dirt & gravel roads & everything is fine.  Then she wants to hit some single track----  Big bike, small rider ---- She bedded down in some nice, soft sand a couple of days ago.  Time before that she tripped in a sand filled rut.  And wet grass, and...   ....   .....  She always convinces me to go places & do things I shouldn't.  Typical woman.

In the last 35 years (riding since I was 10), probably 300,000 miles, 2 pretty good street crashes, a couple of 2 mile per hour tipovers, none in the past 20 years, at least on the street, if I don't crash my KTM 500 dirt bike, or my YZ 250 at least once a month, I'm not trying hard enough.
