Tough break, Mark. Sorry to hear of this! If Bryan's calculations are correct, it sure was a good thing that you at least saw that guy at the last second. 17% more could'a possibly meant something broken on you too.

Phil's right, alright! Seldom is ever put your bike in neutral in this kind of situation, and always "check your sixes for those bogies out there".

(I think I've been watching too many episodes of that "Dogfights" series on the History Channel lately too)


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
