    I have spent a lot of time stuck in traffic though, a LOT of time. You'd think I'd have wicked mad low speed skills by now, but no, I still mostly wobble along. You don't want to be a wobbler.

    Believe it or not I genuinely felt bad for clipping that car :P
    Becoming fearless isn't the point. That's impossible. It's learning how to control your fear, and how to be free from it.

    Of course... but that should not stop you from attempting lane-splitting again. Just practice more slow-speed riding (without any cars around) - find a straight line in an empty car park and practice following that line slowly, not looking down but further in front instead.

    And come to SASS so you can get encouragement and support... "Hi everyone, I'm Bosslady and I... I clipped a mirror!"

    Your beliefs don't make you a better person, your behaviour does.

    Oops, someone mentioned the dirty word(s?). And that thread has only just slipped to page 2 (I am sure to Bosslady's delight). It didn't quite get to 40 either.
    There are 10 types of people in the world: those who understand binary, and those that do not.
