[QUOTE="James Burleigh, post: 1165805, member: 4162"] I believe the rural twisties can be a lot more dangerous than urban riding; well, certainly more dangerous than riding on the freeway, when everyone is going in the same direction. On the twisties there's a multitude of threats just right around the corner, like sand, falling rocks, tractors backing up, vehicles crossing the DY into us, pedestrians, animals, etc., combined with the irresistible temptation to ride way over our heads, thereby crashing into all that sh*t right around the corner, or running off the road because we "wrote a check our skills can't cash" (hopefully [SIZE=14px]when[/SIZE][SIZE=14px] [/SIZE][SIZE=14px]a truck isn't coming round the bend).
