Thanks, riding is a choice we all make knowing the dangers and riding means a lot and I can't say enough how much I love it.

But for us, I think the consideration is to take it off the road (unknown dangers). Perhaps more track days or get an offroad bike even. And I guess, the fact that Dan is willing to do the same, it's something I will think hard and long about over next few weeks.
