[QUOTE="Taff, post: 359983, member: 9358"] I have ridden in some pretty bad weather during my riding life. Up to the point just before I went down I had been using the engine/gearbox for braking. When I gently applied both front and rear brakes, both wheels "locked", steering went left and then I tried to get my feet on the ground. The ABS was not functioning due to ice, that is what I was trying to work out in my brain last night. As one of the posters suggested, this must have been ice, not snow, as my friends who came to rescue me said the car and trailer was slipping all over the place. Wrong place, wrong time!! Ride safe.
