fuck that I hate spiders... not to the point that I go screaming like a girl... but then again... I've never seen one bigger than a small camel spider... and that was "only" about 4" long x 2.5" wide

I had one of those on my fucking arm at work here a few years back. I thought I just had an itch and looked on my left forearm and that shit was like "Yo, I'm big and I'm on your arm". I swatted it off and took some breathes to cool out before I cut it's wounded head off and put it in a Gatorade bottle.

yeah and they're fast as FUCK! but I guess they're not really a spider... they're actually scorpions...

An accident can happen without riding anywhere near your skill level, a simple mistake when you are just cruising at a slow pace can bite the shit out of you on these roads. Ask Drewpy, he went down after he backed it off to just chill and cruise through the gap.

We were all tired after a long hot day of riding and were cruising back to the lodge to hop in the pool. One misjudged corner and wham. Simple mistake that anyone could of made.

Misjudged = out of skill level. I just don't buy the excuses. I know shit happens. It happens to everyone. But you've got to be honest with yourself.

Well then don't ever go to the track or ride twisties, because they are out of your skill level.

I didn't crash at the track. And I haven't crashed on a twistie road.

Yes, but a mistake or misjudging something could lead to that, so it's best for you to just safe at home because you are out of your skill level. Damn those Moto GP riders for riding out of their skill levels.

Whatever gets you to sleep at night, guy.

Ambly went down this weekend as well. Why don't you jump on his case about riding beyond his skill level too.
