How would you go about laying your bike down?

Son a bitch! Somebody has been tampering with the 25 years of racing I've been watching on TV, when low slides result in not "flying over the bike". What's really spooky, is that 99.9% of the low sides I saw in person, also didn't result in this miraculous flying ability. Weird...

Have you been licking toads?

Do the phrases "Blind Corner", "Blind Hill", and "Blind Driveway" ring any bells? Do you know what the word "Blind" means, right?

For someone who rides Angeles Crest, (my old stomping grounds) you must ride awfully slow if you can see what's coming behind all those big ass rocks.
