Wet roads need to be respected, but are not all that much different than dry roads (except a first rain after a long dry spell).
There's no sarcasm intended by me.

All I meant was that riding on an oil spot on a wet road is like riding on ice. You somehow blew that out of proportion. Everybody knows what I really said - it's all documented in this thread. I can't be held responsible for what others make up in their heads.

I'm going to goddam commute this week despite my injuries. If I really thought riding was profoundly dangerous like you say, I wouldn't ride anymore.
