Default Who remembers the "pucker factor?"

Yeah, when your a87 starts to pucker in fear. It brings me back so quickly. Ah, the good ol' days. I'll never forget that when I had my first bike I was riding down Wilshire blvd in Los Angeles, and thought to myself I was doing pretty darn good, unil while stopped at a red light a car from the left lane decided to turn right. They didn't see me, and came right for me. I screamed insanely and they then saw me and slammed their brakes on. I was scared sh&*less to say the least as it was my first day on the streets. That was then I learned that cars don't always see you. I came away from that one unscathed, but it always makes me smile when I think about it now..."Pucker factor" was in full effect...

Never had it on a bike.I work on ladders though,if your ever at the top of a 40ft ladder and somebody bumps into it,you'll experience the P- factor instantly!

I've had the P/F a few times working as a Firefighter, but I haven't had it yet riding. I'm sure I will at some point.

I think it sounds better if you switch the "P" and "F" around.

I told all the Scouts in my Troop I took out to Little Stoneyman in the Shenandoah Valley that was just one additional hold technique.

The 'five point press' in a chimney.

Oh yea, it also keeps my brains from running out, or so I was told by my Staff. I had to remind them the size of the sphincter indicates the minimum size of the brain, ergo Big A--Hole, larger brain.

Every time a cage goes to make a left hand turn, avoid intersections at all costs!
