 Did the same the other day, streets were wet and I was going downhill towards an intersection. Lights change and I decide I can't make it, accidentally lock up the rear wheel but manage to save it when I remember to let off the rear brake again. Even managed to stop in time, but drat, was pretty pumped and shocked afterward, just sat waiting for the green light without even downshifting so I almost stalled it when I launched again :)

 I wanted to get a sports bike when I felt ready. Now I'm not so sure :D
