Re: Find me lots of right turns?
 

Thanks folks- you're alright, you lot ;)

Livingston's a great idea, around the shopping bit's not just roundabouts, lots of big daft sweepers too. Think I'll make a date there at the weekend. I'll be doing plenty of normal riding but I want to really focus just on the rights sometimes, repetition as well so I can think things over properly. I'd go round Salisbury Crags 50 times, it'd be perfect (great road that) but that's a wee bit antisocial :D

That's completely true :) When my mate Ben had his big accident, he was on Sportecs and just couldn't get back into riding, in the end he stuck on Diablos which are basically the same tyre, but it was all in his head anyway so it worked a charm. Spurious changes ftw.

I do trust the tyres though, they only let go because they were stone cold and it was a little bit damp- it was a "turn and maybe crash, or don't turn and definately crash" thing. Certainly no worries about the hardware, it's all in the head this. I had a really good run home today, and then something occurred to me at the end, in the whole trip there's only one proper right hander :smt119

Re: Find me lots of right turns?
 

Right hand bends are not my best point either, met a car on one.. my side of the line :smt119 and had a major moment! Still cannot commit fully to a right sweeper unless i can see through the bend. Decided to change the way i position myself on them for a bit, following a set road position instead of apexing the bend.. then started to build my speed up again. Back to looning it on the way to/from work now (few nice rights) but still take it easy on strange roads.
