Strung Out
:diva:

Yesterday.

I thought I failed. I put a foot down and then went outside the line on the
20' box PLUS had to re-do the brake test; started stopping before the cones. :bawl:

Now, if I can find a way top get paid to test ride bikes and take skill classes...

On my Strat, pretty wide bars, I started the box exercise splaying my legs, which I have developed a habit doing at low speed, to give the bars room to turn to the stops. This is when I almost dropped the bike during one pass as the front brake lever mysteriously, and suddenly, pressed up against my knee pad. This resulted in a rather surprising loss of forward mo' and a heart clutching ALMOST! :jameo:

So, the rest of that exercise, I worked on gripping the tank which, surprise, numb nuts :stupid: , worked pretty much as the bike was designed. :tap:

So, what do I do when test time comes? Back to the bad habit and I put my foot down and went wide. :banghead:

All in all, good stuff!

Congrats on taking and passing the course. You're a head of many other riding since you know what you're weak on and can work to improve.
