The 'Ride Like a Pro Series are great! The example of his wife handling a big hog sent me to the closest high school parking lot on Sunday mornings. Circling a light pole works well if you don't forget the little feet that come out at the base.
The latest Rider mag has an interesting tidbit about a guy who took a police riding course. 'Everyone has one side they are better turning on.' I noticed that during practice and thought I was just weird(different subject). I can make tighter slow left hand circles than right circles and I'm right handed.
The Rider peice said this police dept makes it even worse by putting the tight U turns up against a brick wall so you can't shicken out and exit.

No amount of skill can overcome gross stupidity. Ask me how I know...never mind, I forgot...
