I was riding a rented bike through the Coromandel outside Auckland one day on holidays many years ago, with my girlfriend on the back. Loads of nice wide curves and mountain climbs. I’m not a particularly aggressive driver but the road was clear and I was certainly fanging it from time to time. Towards the end of the trip, the roads were mostly downhill. It’s easy to go too fast for the corners, so I back off a bit, but am still having fun. We passed a sign saying “caution, winding road”. Great! Then a minute or so later, we passed a sign saying “warning: falling rocks”. Ok. Another minute and we passed a sign saying “slippery when wet”. Well it’s not raining so I’m good. Then less than a minute later it started raining, seemingly out of nowhere. I sat up straight in my seat, dialled the throttle back and decided the rest of the ride would be entirely defensive. $DIETY had given me enough warnings for one day.
