(hopefully toward the more minor degree)

Personally, I've crashed a few times, learned what not to do in that scenaro from each one, thanked the motorcycle gods, and moved on.

I think that's ridiculous personally....and it gives me an opportunity to start one of my inane arguments!

Do you believe that absolutely EVERYONE will be involved in an automobile accident? Heck, 20-25% of the population has herpes, does that GUARANTEE that EVERYONE will get it eventually regardless of how careful they are? Of course not. Not EVERYONE that rides a motorcycle is going to crash. Shit, insurance would be impossible to get if every bike on the road was going to be crashed at some point. Sheesh...
