I've eaten it on that corner before also, but the culprit that time was biodegrading leaf litter and moss making the road slick. It's a spot that never gets any sun. Two other riders crashed shortly after me, ignoring my arm waving to slow down.
Doesn't matter how confident I'm feeling, I now I pick my way round that corner at about 3mph, shaking like a baby deer!
Yes, I’ve definitely had a shady moment there before too. Thing is, when I got straight up, I was absolutely filthy - not just humus, it seems to be diesel or similar.
