Question to all you riders who do thousands and thousands of kilometers, are crashes something we need to put up with as they come with the terrain? I see professionals on TV crash so it is not just us novices.
Riding on the road, it sorta comes with the territory, but having said that the only crash (I've ridden all over Oz in the last 35 years) I have ever had on the road was not my fault when a Sydney taxi drove me into the gutter to pick up a passenger... WTF.
Partner when over her handlebars at slow speed off road a couple of weeks ago, stick in the front wheel.
