There is a reason I only ride "Dual Sports" out on public roads... it gives me several more options to "get the hell out of the way"!
Everywhere I look is now a potential way "to freedom!"
I have lost count of how many times I had to split lanes (still illegal out here!), hop sidewalks, and a few times I even had to ride down and up a few ditches/medians to keep myself out of harms way... a couple times I did those acts in front of a cop whom needed to have a few words with me... flat out told them "I only ride like that to potentially save my life from a distracted driver" (that is now long gone)
Lost a few friends over the years, mostly due to them riding too fast for their protection used (one friend would barely put on a helmet when he went out on his turbo'd liter bike... RIP)
Keep your head on a swivel and remember you're invisible...
