[QUOTE="DailyCommuter, post: 435594, member: 7159"] Nope, I downshifted an extra gear or 2 with my oversized workboots on going into an offramp like a typical squid way too fast and the back tire locked up when I dumped the clutch . Had two choices : take a high side into the guard rail at about 65 or exit the ramp using the non conventional method! I picked number two, and took a short flight to the ground 20 feet down. Man was I pissed! While in the air, the thought never occurred to me that I might be about to die, I just kept thinking,"oh great, I'm going to be late for work.: yeah about 6 weeks late! Live and learn. I panicked instead of trying to throttle out of it. But I can't say for sure how it would have ended that way anthow [/QUOTE]
