Default Re: a little about me just thought i should share

Great stories. Mine is not quite as dramatic, but it's something I won't ever forget. One time in my early 20's I was bicycling in the San Francisco bay area heading down a steep hill more than a little too fast. At the bottom of the hill was a sharp right hand turn that I didn't think I could make staying in my lane. A car was coming in the opposite lane. I entered the turn, crossed the center line, closed my eyes, and leaned. I was astonished to find myself coming out of the turn instead of being plastered all over the car. Did I simply make the turn in time? I really don't know because I wasn't looking.
