I see the same kind of posts on other forums all the time. Last year I went on a ride with some younger guys from another forum and after seeing how fast they like to ride going into completely blind corners, I decided to split off and ride alone for a while. I was not at all suprised when one of the forum members hit a deer later that summer and crashed. I guess after you've been down once or twice or maybe had some close calls, you learn to SLOW DOWN. I guess some folks take more time than others to learn this and repeatedly crash bikes. Others only crash one and its their first and last.
