[QUOTE="SacramentoMike, post: 1147381, member: 11508"] Lots and lots of miles in almost 50 years of riding. No crashes at all. Till that last couple feet, anyhow. [IMG]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif[/IMG] So yeh, one good one, totaled the FJR blowing a turn, and a couple of half-assed inattentive screwups that I rode away from. But man, those "Almost Accidents." I remember them all SOOO vividly. Maybe more than the real getoffs. Like the red-light blowing jeep who almost ate me up at about 50 mph here in town. Or the really calm, relaxed buck that was enjoying the middle of the quiet road in Idaho, just past a nice sporty curve. Or the garbage truck that started to turn into me about a mile from here as I zipped through the yellow light. I can still see his big bumper dive about six inches as he slammed on the brakes and I passed it about half a foot from my adam's apple. [/QUOTE]
