I echo the amazement at a supposed crash rate of once every 4000 miles. If that is really the case, someone is going to have to make up for the over 100 crashes I have skipped. Hopefully, I won't start making up for lost time now; I'm too old to sit around healing up, there's riding to do and pies to eat.

I am also glad the op had come out of this encounter with a high gravity zone in good health.
