That's the first time I've heard that argument in support of bike ABS. Good point, I actually see why a new(er) rider would want ABS.

Just curious, but am I the only one who practices panic breaking (and turning radius control, and collision avoidance, etc)? I'll occasionally find myself a nice empty parking lot and practice....a behavior that was encouraged way back when I took lessons.
