I look at riding as a near death experience- almost every day I hit the reaper with my get back whip for another day.
Never focus on what just happened, get ready for the next chucklehead that will try to kill you.

The DVD "Ride Like a Pro" has a some good basic info. I recently noticed some small flexible orange plastic cones at local Walmart and bought a dozen. I've got a long driveway and it's fun to practice slow weave there, or set up a quick course at a local parking lot.

Thanks AZRider 62. What bothers me is that I knew better but after 30+ years riding four motorcycles this is my first collision. There is always something to learn. I too had issues with the "Its in the eyes" lesson as mentioned above. Practice, practice, practice is the key and I try to do at least some practice on every ride. But, is this a great hobby, or what?!?
