You're not kidding! The strips that run parallel to the travel direction can be disconcerting if you're not loose on the bars. I encounter several of these on my commute to and from work each day, a couple of them being on a slight curve. No matter how dry it is outside, my rear always slips out a bit. I've started kind of enjoying it, but seriously, it can make your ass pucker a bit the first few times.
