When I first started riding about 6 years ago, I was definitely #1. I loved taking every corner at the max on the street, with no care for the consequences. I scared many a cager with my bike leaned over, brushing the pavement.
After returning from my riding hiatus, however, I am definitely #2 now. I am putting much greater care into form and technique than I did before, and my riding skills are much more concise as a result.
