Yeah, tonight in fact.
Went for a short night ride and on the way home got behind two slow movers
so I went around the first one (they started blowing their horn before I was even beside them and it wasn't even a weird pass). Passed the second slow mover in the right turn of a short ess after checking for oncoming lights when lo and behold a pair of headlights pop up from the rise in the lane that I am in.
I was already committed since I was at the cars front quarter panel so I cranked it with headlights in my eyes in the left lane and was heading straight towards the apex of the left hander of the ess when I went around the car in the right lane so I dumped the throttle, layed it over and downshifted, gave it gas and 4 seconds later after the next right turn I didn't see headlights in my mirrors anymore.
Stupid of me for passing instead of waiting a few more seconds, awesome for the sprint being as nimble as she is.
