Today I was down Tiger Bend, I hit a lazy curve doing about 45 when my front tire slid on a thick patch of fresh grass clippings some careless homeowner had blown straight into the street.
My hog fishtailed hard, rear end stepping out like it was trying to runaway from me, and for a second, I thought I was going down.
I was already shifting my weight, ready to lay her down to avoid a high side, eyeing the ditch. Luckily, I steadied her, caught traction, and rolled out.


You sound like you've never ridden a motorcycle in your life.

Probably best you don't.

This OP being downvoted is crazy to me. What kind of psycho would blow their grass in the street believing it could cause a motorcycle to lose control?

But where else do they go? It is a natural byproduct of lawn maintenance.


Not blowing the clippings back into the yard is the definition of lazy and trashy.

So you are going to fast around a turn that you can't adjust for objects in the road. Just be warned if my kid gets hit.

As homo as the OP sounds, I do agree with him about grass clippings. Blow it back in your yard.

. only the portion you mow near the road end up IN the road, and they blow away soon enough anyway between wind and air displacement of passing vehicles.


You are supposed to blow those back into your yard for a few reasons but mostly because they will clog storm drains. It's pretty easy and only takes a few minutes to not be a piece of shite.

I find most riders to be dumbasses who live up to the stereotype of “organ donors”.


It’s hard to look and listen for riders if they are splitting lanes at 90 and otherwise driving like assholes.
