Re: how would you rate your riding skills ?
 
That's a tough question. I have no idea really. The problem is that I can ride great when I have to but endless commutes tend to get quite boring and every now and again I do something that makes me think "Should not have done that really". Have been known to go for gaps that would only fit a hamster on a scooter but yet it doesn't phase me. But other days when out I can be very smooth and ride almost test perfect. I guess under test conditions I would say above average but then I could be totally wrong. I guess I could argue that I've ridden everyday for 4 years and only had one accident which wasn't even my fault, but then I've had a couple of times where I've had lucky escapes too (due to my impatience or just plain stupidness). I would say I'm an average rider to play it safe.

In which case I would hasten to suggest that you stop pushing it down the middle of the A55, get back on and ride the bloomin' thing!:smt017

I believe that's what is referred to as "false modesty". ;)
