she’d never been adept
at hanging lefthand curves;
hitting the apex just so,
leaning tight into the turn.
she’d fall out too soon,
or overshoot, rattling
her delicate equilibrium.
but let her lean right,
oh my! and the gods smiled
at the smooth transition,
steely nerves, graceful form.
she pondered a world of
only right hand curves
and ended up exactly
where her ride began.

Wonderful metaphor for this, that and most other things

And I really can’t handle left hand curves on my motorcycle very well. I’m a chicken.

I’ve ridden for many years. My biggest motorcycle accomplishment was a solo trip of more than 2,000 miles.

I’m impressed! my feet didn’t reach the ground and I’m afraid of (other) crazy drivers, so I gave up trying. Pity, it’s such a sexy sport for gals 🙂

I don’t think it’s very sexy the way I do it!

Thank you for shedding the light on my ignorance. I would never know that there is a difference. Now that you say it, I do feel more comfortable turning right rather than left in the parking lot…

Well, I don’t find it an issue when I drive a car, but on my motorcycle I can’t lean into a left hand turn at all.
