had my first close call today

[hemi]

got very lucky i didn't lay down the busa for the first time today. Had the fiancee on the back going through a neighborhood around a turn (was only doin about 30 mph). The streets were full of the tar lines where they fix the road cracks, i hate those things, my bike always slips on them every time. Goin through the turn they were everywhere, hit a huge spot of them and the bike started to slide out on me. Luckily i was quick enough and put my right foot down, which actually kept the bike from goin down. Scared the crap out of both of us. Got lucky this time!!

Good instincts. I got used to putting a foot down while dirt riding and it can come in handy on the street if you're not going too fast.

i hate the tar snakes, every time leaning the bike and i hit one the bike will slip on them. Normally they are only a few inches wide though and it will catch traction again. This time it was like 1000 tar snakes piled together haha
