Today while at work I was driving the state van to transport some fellow employee's to the parking lot. There is a 15 MPH right turn on the way. Now, I love riding more than anything, its all I think about all day long. In fact, I have rode several different routes with supreme excellence while at work, IN MY MIND (day dreaming ):squid:. Now back to the story. When approaching the turn, like a good rider, I turned my head and looked into the turn. What I failed to do, was realize that a 10 pass. van cannot take a turn like a 600cc sportbike. While looking through the turn I noticed that the van would not lean to the right like I wanted it to (due to serious lack of countersteering ) and I had to turn the wheel really hard and apply a generous amount of brakes. We made it through the turn O.K. but not without some embarrassment on my part and a little sharing of the opposite lane:spank:. I got to thinking, could riding so much ( all year round ) have turned me into the crappiest cager that ever lived?:don'tknow: Take it easy on me.
