His obviously not going to skid on it or ride it too hard..... although it would be a good idea for the traffic @ Tokyo....
1st part - my feelings entirely, and thank you.
2nd, I'd like to be able to do all that trick stuff for the sake of enlarging my safety zone.
I raced a 1000cc BMW for a season a couple of years back. A very noticeable result of riding for 10 laps at a time at the very limit of my abilities and the bike's grip was how, back on public roads at street speed, the experience slowed everything down. I thought about this when I watched that video of Gregory Bauge recovering after coming into contact with Kevin Sireau on the 'Poseurs' thread.

Bauge's recovery, as well as being a beautiful thing to watch, was his instinct kicking in and the result of his ability to control a skid. You can bet that he was relaxed the whole way through.
I also want to be learn to ride backwards
