I am neither, I am a software developer who dabbles in BOP triathlons for fun & fitness, but I have been riding (motor)bikes nearly exclusively from 16 to my early 20s and been downhill skiing since I was 12 or so, in my mind there is no comparison, I feel way safer on a motorbike/pair of skis than on a tri/road bike, no questions about it.
And BTW, I thought the rule now is 'discuss the message, not the messenger', I have given you a ton of reasons why a motorbike feels safer than a road bike, I would appreciate if you talked about them and not about my lack of descending skills... more power to whomever goes 70kph+ on a downhill, it for sure isn't ever going to be me.
