This didn't involve any other traffic. I come down this hill circa 30mph and at the bottom of the hill is a fairly tight left hander, I dabbed the brakes to get ready for the entry and pick my apex point. I pick my line beautifully however the bend had some gravel on the apex which I had forgotten about, it was not that easy to spot due to it looking very similar to road surface aggregate . It was like somebody had put ball bearings all over the road, I felt the front wheel momentarily let go and was preparing myself for an intimate moment with the tarmac. Thankfully the tyres find a bit of traction and I could continue around the corner.
Anybody else have moments when the bike feels like it might crash due to the road surface and then for the bike to correct itself and carry on as if nothing happened?
