And as a result of that crash, I got to spend the next day thrashing a ZX-10 around (and by "thrashing", I mean squidding around the track in 4th gear)

Low water crossings suck.

I just want to chime in and say that this concret was SLICK AS ICE. I mean, I know people make that analogy all the time, but it was no exaggeration here. Once we got the bike picked up and I was poking around, with just a few strides of a running start I could slide across the pavement easily. I think it was a combination of the cement being polished smooth by the water, and alge growth that combined to make it one of the slippriest things I've EVER had to try and ride on.

I was only milliseconds away from dumping my Wee-Strom avoiding Raven. I really have no idea how I kept it upright, I was sliding around all over the place.
