    Vid is basic defensive riding (I went to a course on this 1976), should be compulsory to all new rider/ drivers being carefull has over and over saved my arse.
    It's all about riding to the conditions and attitude, nothing about the cost of honey ...from the 60's Quote" Ride to Live".
    Never knew that thin bikes were more dangerous than fat bikes though, does that mean if your a fat basturd on a skinny bike your risk rises?

    Ol' Cassy has been in its car on the road to Akaroa on some weekends and witnessed spirited riding and dubious overtaking and has formed one big fuck up of an assumption. It has the ability it would think to know what's going on in other peoples minds.

    does that also mean if one were a tad portly and riding a fat bike then one would be safe. but the zzr is so much more fun

    Maybe you were passed by riders who can take a 50km corner at 60km or a 60km corner at 70km or even a 90km corner at 100km. cause you have previously stated that we should all corner at the recomended speed limit.

    Sensible stuff but Cassina wouldn't like it. He makes the point that just because an accident was somebody else's fault that doesn't mean it was unavoidable, which tends to negate Cassina's defence .
    The other thing is he recommends training and specifically mentions IAM which in the past has been like a red flag to a bull. Cassina knows nothing about IAM but is convinced it doesn't work.
