Re: THE CLOSEST YOU'VE EVER CAME TO DEATH!
1. Dirt bike riding at the Canadian River by myself (not very smart). Did a huge tank slapper in some giant sand whoops, crashed and was out. Don't know how long, but it sure drove home the fact that I should never ride by myself.
2. Street riding 101 - Me on a 1993 DR650S I owned (a very cool bike by the way) I got a quick lesson about how you cannot just stuff a bike on the street into a corner like you can on the dirt. It's night, hauled butt into a corner, nailed the brakes, laid it over and the front washes out. I go down right in front of a car. Thankfully, the lady driving was paying attention and somehow missed me and the bike.
I don't need any more.
