Just something to keep in everyone's mind

My GF has to take motion sickness meds when she rides with me on mountain runs now.

Joey is normally fast enough that it is kinda hard to get close to him, so I think she'll be fine with that request... lol

I was there the day she realized this was necessary. Needless to say we didn't finish the run after lunch.

You could also buy some books that teach you about driving and suspension to understand better what's going on. I've been to lazy to do that but will at some point. It'd be nice to understand why a bigger or smaller sway bar causes more or less understeer, or why/when would you want to stiffen the front or rear of your car, etc. etc.

What books do you recommend?

I ussually go pretty fast down mountain and brake pretty late, I ALWAYS go slower around blind turns and always slow down when I see another car or bike.

Hopefully if a bike had been coming you would have seen them and braked earlier. Don't beat yourself up over it, nothing happened.
