Re: Went down in traffic today....
A moderately costly learning incident - probably a net plus all things considered. No permanent body damage and I'd say you are hard wired from here on out to be careful with the brakes when it's wet. I only ride on wet roads when it's due to poor weather forecasting on my part. Between sand, gravel, leaves, paint, oil, tracks, metal plates, man(person?)holes, etc, there's just too many opportunities to hit the pavement. I feel stable on a wet freeway (being relatively free of debris and having grooved pavement) but side roads and especially country roads, just seem like one hazard after another sneaking up to kill you.
Keep yer joints moving over the next week or so - often the worst doesn't set in until a few days after. Glad you didn't bust anything up real bad.
