Mark, I think I must be reading your post wrong, but it looks like you said a rider can't learn from crashing. :wtf

Actually I have not learned a thing from these two crashes. I have learned that when one really revamps their riding style there is an increased chance of crashing. Also I learned about how emotional ties can be bound in an object, like a motorcycle.

I found that a most interesting read.. nicely done. I love to read stuff that is passion/experience based about the individual by the individual.

Heal quick..!

Seriously? So you don't know why you crashed? Or you do know why you crashed, and you already knew whatever that was and did it anyways? Huh.

ThinkFast you know you are replying to a thread over 10 years old? I'm not even sure if Mark still posts here.

To add to the 11 year old thread ...

From the pic of dragging a knee on skeggs to the "how do I go faster" mindset, I was thinking "why is this guy riding the street like this" ... get to the track.

I couldn't make it much further. :)

Oh, the mindset that you gotta crash and break bones and bleed and all that to get better is kind of ridiculous.

The flip side, of if you plan to win races then on that path you will have some crashes is correct.
