I have had a crazy busy summer. I haven't been able to post as much as I would like to have. Well I have had several occasions to ride since my last post.

Today after my ride to school and back I went in search of an empty parking lot so that I could practice. I found a parking lot that had 7 or 8 lights spaced out about 50 feet apart with no curbs. I spend 30 minute weaving between them a about 20-25 mph. Also there was a nice outside lane around the...

Yesterday I had a slight set back. I decided that I was going to go ride on a road that I have driven maybe 500 times. It has relatively tight snake curves and decent speeds (50 mph). I figured that since I felt comfortable riding 70+ and the roads I have been riding on a daily basis have some curve...
