My Role: Never ride faster than you can see--in other words enter blind corners on a line and at a speed that will allow me to alter my line or stop if I discover the worst imaginable surprise. Once you can see the apex and the exit it's ok to speed up. This has saved my butt in cars and on many kinds of two-wheeled vehicles. There have even been instances on roads (like Montezuma Grade) where we have ridden down briskly and found the road clear all the way but coming back we found newly-fallen rocks that caused our "fast guy" to crash in a big way.
