Close shave.

Rideout with the lads today, Aberdovey n back to Shrewsbury via Llandiloes.
Thanks to Aprilia and the demon Brembo front brakes I managed to avoid shunting a **** up the arse in a Focus, who, at the last minute decided to jam on his brakes just as I glanced to my right side looking at some totty. Split second decision was either the back of the focus or into a bridge parapet. Thankfully to my amazement the brakes are so powerful as I aimed for the bridge but stopped way short. Sphincter was goin 6p's and ha/crowns.

Nice to see another T in the vacinity. We should meet up with Newelly sometime next year. There's a few others lurking around llangollen & Wrexham somewhere too.

Always remember that a crap car will stop in a shorter distance than a good bike.

Nothing to do with the rider, its down to the amount of tyre area on the road.
