So I've been riding for about a week now and have doing pretty good... I thought. Yesterday, I came to a complete stop shifting all the way down to a stop sign. turned the blinker on to the left, started going and next thing I know I'm in a bush. Was only going about 5mph tops but it's like I turned the bike and it headed straight , very wide turn to say the least. An old lady said "are you ok?" and I was like, "uh... sure." I was fine and the bike was left without a scratch. (just ordered frame sliders today). I picked it up embarassed but grateful we were both ok and rode it back to park it. Did I not look through my turn or could I have been going to fast or is it because I didn't put my feet up on the pegs in time? I'm not sure. Please give me some tips so I don't do this next time into a pole or a parked car. BTW, I ride in a quiet neighborhood with very little to no traffic. Maybe sugest some things I should practice in an open lot.
thx...
