glad you are ok. i did the same years back on a sport bike. not going fast, 30mph. the road literally was two flat S's. i went through the first couple turns and on one of them decided to go straight through the grass, grabbed the front brake and went down fast. no injuries. just plastic damage. i couldn't figure out what i was thinking and why i went straight.

Heal quickly and get back in the saddle. Four of us were in that area last week. The roads there are great motorcycle roads. Glad to hear you did not suffer any long term injury. Will remember you in my prayers.

I happens so quickly doesn't it and right before you hit the pavement or ground your thinking "boy that was a dumb move". I know what it's like. My Harley helment saved me too. Remember, NO rubber necking on a motorcycle.

Glad everything is going to be ok.
