yup it me again, bored once agian. Lets hear some of the close calls you guys/gals had on your bikes. lets see i was takin a 2 lane blind turn at 90mph( I KNOW IM NOT WELL KNOWN FOR MY BRAINS [confused] ) and there ended up bein 2 cars with a small gap inbetween them. It was either trying to slow down and possibly wreck, or make a ballsy move and cut inbetween the 2 cars. i decided to cut inbetween the 2 cars wich was about 3-4 foot gap(AT 90MPH IT WAS PRETTY SCARRY ). man was my heart racin after that ,what a rush.
 
One of my last days of riding before the snow I was going home at night, they already sprayed deicer on the roads so they were pretty slippery. Going into an S curve prolly too fast, but a cager decided he like my lane more than his and moved over. I swerved onto a one-way and my back tire kicked out so I was doing the ol' sliding sideways mambo for a couple yards before I let off the throttle, jammed on it once, straightened her out. Got my heart rate up better than and hour of cardio at the YMCA.
 
I had stoped at a gas station to call my brother to see where he was. We were supposed to be meeting up at the gas station. He then walked out of the gas station cell phone in hand talking to me.

What a close call!
 
Right after buying my buell I left the dealership and took a left turn onto a 4 lane divided highway .. the car coming was in the far lane so i took the inside lane.. as soon as I got on the inside of the inside lane.. old 92 year old dorris came flying past me in my lane.. could have been a deadly rear-ender.. good thing i take the inside of the inside lane lol. I got next to her and gave her the bird.

Another time I was on some ol country backroads during crop season here in minnesota.. the tractors come off the field onto the road and leave a nice spot of mud/dirt/grass .. my front tire slipped out on me at about 55 mph and grabs almost instantly .. I put my foot down because i thought the front end was going to wash out.. Good old dumlop saved me :)

There are also a few times i wadded up in corners but thats just rookie mistakes. I'm sure I'll have more when the snow goes away..
 
this one happened about 10 minutes ago . . . i was playing with a mustang in traffic and you know the right lanes that end, i decided to go around him and another car well at the end of the lane that ends what a little grandma car just chillin letting someone pull out so i had to do some dodging maneuvers, i could have slapped that damn tail light kinda gave me the shakes . . . another time i was just cruising on a 2 lane one way street , i was crusing in the left lane and noticed the car getting ready to pull out and i was like "she better take the inside lane" hell no she got right over on top up me i was in between her and the curb maybe a foot between them no each side. . . she finally pulled her head out of her phone and moved over . . .that was the scariest moment i have had yet
