Generally when i ride i have loose grips on the bike. I have been pushed across lanes before but i was in about a 30 mph corner and there wasn't much i could have done besides lean harder. I like to think i've ridden in nearly all types of weather. Monsoons, strong winds, flurries, 100 degree heat. 20 degree cold. Its possible I thought I had a death grip going but actually was having hand cramps from driving 1k miles in 2 days.
