Yet another reason why I don't like riding on the street... not the gap, not anywhere

Welcome!!! Hey, I had two bad crashes within two months of each other and one of which totalled my beloved Aprilia Tuono, and these crashes were about a year and a half ago. I'm still having the jitter.

I have never been too fond of 421, it's got too many entrances and exits on it. Just asking to get pulled out in front of.

Shit,it's been over ten years since I hit a deer and I'm still nervous at dawn or dusk. Not to mention my fear of being rear ended having had it happen three fucking times!!!

I didn't get any jitters after my crash... even after the subsequent near death goose decoy experience... Strange.
