How do you deal with anger?

8. I honestly don't know how I did it.

Avoiding the accident happened so fast (even though it felt like an eternity), my memory is spotty. I remember thinking that I had to get around the car, because even though I was breaking, I was headed right towards it. Since cornering and breaking at the same time is a bad idea (you have to divide your traction between breaking and cornering), I let off the locked up back break (another bad idea, as you're begging for a high-side accident), knowing I stood a pretty good chance at getting tossed, but I was out of options. The bike kicked me, but I didn't get tossed. I honestly don't remember the details of the swerve.

As for not yelling, I can't say what calmed me. Maybe that time it took to take my gear off was enough. At that point I felt sick, and had the overwhelming thought that whatever I was going to do was a bad idea. Not 100% on that, but I vividly remember that her apparent apprehension made me feel ill for making her feel that way. Weird, but that's how I felt.
