Speaking of cornering.... Just a couple of days ago I got schooled by a guy on a Yamaha sport bike of some kind on my local road, Hwy 80, a.k.a. The Devil's Whip. That doesn't happen often, but I'm old enough now to set my ego aside. All of a sudden, out of nowhere, he was behind me (note to motorcyclists, mostly cruisers - that means he is moving faster than me). I passed a car in front of us and then decided to see just who was behind me, as he quickly tucked in behind me. Well, it was a particularly curvy section and with my pegs making a steady scraping noise in each corner, and without enough straight sections to push ahead, I very quickly waved him on (another note to many cruiser guys- this is an option). Watched as he was leaned waaay over through successive curves before passing a car in an area where I was not comfortable following suit. Bye, bye.... good rider.
