Bad Nuff we have the deal with cell phone distracted, Blind Ignorant drivers.
I so much enjoy (no so much my Scooter issue but my CBR) making a Nice Run (A Pace),
a Buck Comfortable Buck Ten or so, Round a Nice Corner and to my Delight My Lane (line) Completely Covered in Fresh Juicy Thick Fresh Cut Fescue Grass Blown by a Home Owner.
Life Flashes before your Eyes as you Slide into a Nice Two Wheel Drift just Waiting for Her to Regain Grip and High Side me.
K, I just pulled off a Rossi move and Survived, Clean Snit from Pants.
I had confronted several home owners in Texas were I came from, holding back gently informing them that I have a Bad Azz Texas M/C Attorney on Retainer and He Will Beat your Attorney.
Was only Bermuda or St. Augistine Grass in Texas, Juicy, Lush, Sweet Fescue is like Grease
Here in the Foot Hills of the Smokey's of NC, well, well.
Deep Breaths.
k, Still Glad to be in Dixie Land!

Do they tar and chip the roads out there ? They do it here !!!! Its ok for cars , but not for 2 wheels . its like riding on Pee gravel !! Even after a few weeks , the middle of each side of the road " where the tires don't usually ride on " are still loose , so its very dangerous around turns. |

Yeah they do that tar chip thing here. I actually slid out into traffic because i couldn't stop in time. Punched it as I was sliding out and a car was coming  My fault for going to fast but that stuff is dangerous anyway. |

Little to know Chip and Seal here in my area of NC. Did run into Fresh Batch of it while I was riding my CBR In Uwharie Ntl. Forest just south of me last Fall. As soon as I pointed down that mess I turned around and got good and lost. |

Was actually more concerning running into the same thing doing a lap with the "Lil Bstrd".
Im that mental thats more concerned about my Metal than my Body.
Four wheel drift from the inside all the way to the right withe line.
Maybe any less of a car and would have been a trip thru the Tera Ferma, Soil Samples, Then the Tulip's.

Tis a PuckerButt moment for sure.
I think much more of the pain since I totaled my 970 Street Fighter in 13.
Took 40+ years of riding to accomplish that.
