Not the maximum, but got the old heart going
Almost crashed my bike this morning - On my way to School i go round a blind bend (where the road also tightens), for the last 2 days i've met a bus coming the other way, so this time i decided i'd slow down - i reach over and squeeze the rear brake a little, slowing me down, and just as i go round the bend i see a ****ing great big bus in the middle of the road - i squeeze the brake hard and the rear wheel locks - the bike goes sideways and i drift past a bus at 40 MPH. Luckily the rear came back quite nicely, otherwise it could slapped back and thrown me off into the bus.
