First time it rained here, I took a corner too fast and spun out...it
felt like I was driving on a solid sheet of ice. Of course, being used
to driving in snow, it was easy to recover. Scary stuff!

I had that happen about 23 years ago while on a motorcycle... I had stopped
at a stop sign and as I took off and made the left turn, the bike came out
from underneath me... I immediately knew what caused it, but that did do any
good... I just climbed on the side of the bike and enjoyed the spin /
ride... I really do not like 2 wheeled vehicles on slippery surfaces...
