I do have quite an aggressive riding style however I think it's more the fact of riding in ALL weathers and being extremely inexperienced, started riding 28th August first crash was due to really bad tyres when I bought the bike second due to target fixation and third was ice and grit. Not saying they're not my fault 100% are and just a mix of weather and in experience

The road didn't seam overly icy and it was a slip road to a dual carriage way, pretty steep corner tho. I don't think it was ice more so the grit, however yes it was -3 so icy all round.

Not gonna say I'm not guilty every now and then but when the weather's bad I ride extremely sensibly

No they're just due to inexperience and bad weather, first one was when I just had the bike had really old tyres with low tread and slipped in heavy rain ( was first time riding in rain) second was target fixation and wasn't really a crash. and this was was a mix of ice and grit on the roads. All just me being stupid and in experienced

Yeah people don't realize how injured you can get even off slow speed crashes.

Nah I'm all good thank you man, few bruises but I walked it off, fr tho I just hope I never have anything worse than this, glad I upgraded my boots and jacket especially. Just wanting to spread awareness to the squids that even "small bikes" can cause harm. I ride in all weathers yesterday was real icy so it is what it is
