    I was doing a mock module 1 test today which included that swervy bit. It
    was in a wet car park with a bit of loose gravel and at the top corner
    before the straight I was getting the bike well over and feeling the rear
    tyre squirming about as I cranked the throttle open.

    I'm ashamed to say I rather enjoyed it. Am I doomed?

    It's usually this[1] bit of tarmac that makes my front wheel do
    something vertically inclined and the back something sideways when I
    wind it open doing the right hander.
    I have no idea what's going on, but that corner is always FAR slower
    than I want it to be.

    Ah, yes, I have exactly the same issue on that corner. No matter what
    speed I go in at, it always feels really, really shit.
