I had a low side the other day when I came around a turn covered in grape juice. Seems it's harvest time and a truck dumped wine grapes, but didn't clean the road properly! Bike slid on the crash bar and almost ground through it. The only damage other than the crash bar was the tip of the brake lever broke and my Aerostich was trashed. I continued my ride!

Not meaning to hijack this thread and turn it into a GS Fails thread. Here is a clip of me taking a bath in the Santa Ynez Valley. You can fast forward to about the 4.30 minute mark to see the spill.
Man that happened in a hurry. Glad to hear you are ok, especially since I wear a 'Stich too. I'm going to check out the GoPro - having it on all the time might come in handy.
Wow! Glad you walked away from that one. ATGATT. Thanks for the eye opener.
