Sounds like a good way of riding to fall off on wet asphalt.
hahaha, but seemed to work on the wet tracks though and while on the slick roads. Just worked fairly well for me so far

Last night I got caught in the rain on the way home from work. It wasn't to bad, I have a 10 mile ride home. I just took it easy. Can't say I enjoyed as much as dry ground.

vic glad to herar that you got your wet wings and did just fine as you know time will build confidence as every one has said with a light bike watch you speed entering the corner to prevent the front from washind and use good throttle control on the exit to keep the rear under you i also use way less front brake than normal but that just me now that you have popped your cherrie you will fing your own style
