You have to ride with some regularity in order to be proficient. A lot depends on whether you're a fair-weather rider, or a real biker who rides year-round. It's like a pilot with 3000 hours: did he accumulate that in a relatively short time, or is it just the same 1st hour repeated 3000 times over a long period of time.
Not because we don't want to ride more, but because a bunch of us, and especially me, have a well established averson to riding a motorcycle on roads that get covered in snow and ice for several months of the year.
If you want to ride on it, be my guest.
I just ask one favor, be a nice guy and leave me whatever pieces are left of your bike in your will.

Not everyone can be at the top of their game riding a motorcycle every day no matter who you are. Its normal

Ridin in a charity ride on nice sunny day. About 35 bikes. Were in a long slow sweeping turn in the boonies. The next thing I know, I'm outta the turn, in the wrong lane heading for the beanfield.
Got control, (no oncoming traffic, thank God) pulled back in line. Next stop the dude I was riding next to said, WTF? Told him I had a sleep disorder... Road crew said, "good recovery" and off we went. Point is, I have no idea, to this day, what happened. Musta been in that Twilight Zone
