Pilot powers have very very good heat retention even in cold (winter temps), the one time my tire slid out on me that you’ve mentioned was a very crappy metzler that never stuck to begin with and it was on a 30 degree night right after I took off.

What still baffles me is how instant it was, I’ve never even had the chance to recover.

The instructor told me I was running at the limit of the tire the entire run in the dry that’s why he wanted to follow me to give me hints before I ran out of tire.

Didn’t hurt one bit, as a matter a fact it was the most cushy crash I’ve ever had :lol

When you’re covered from head to toe in gear you feel like you can stop a bullet, but going to the bathroom presents an issue of epic proportions.

That fall was at about 60mph if not faster but the only thing going through my mind was “Really? REALLY? Ooooooh there’s my bike” :rofl

Yep right back on the backup pony just to have that one trip over itself as well.
