Riding our 2nd bike, the Ninja 250 (also known affetionately in the Ninja circles as the Ninjette) to see my daughters volleyball game, I approached a side street at 10 mph. No traffic so I looked through the turn and began the lean. Once onto the street and still leaned over, the front wheel began to slip. I was able to get my foot down to prevent the low side; thankfully. After the game I rode back to the scene to examine it carefully. There was some dirt at the junction of the street and the main road but this was not where I slipped. Onto the street I noticed some tiny dark spots and a lonely long dead leaf. The dark spots didn't seem too recent and they were far apart. The only thing left was that old leaf. My mistake for not carefully examining the street before entering the turn. Had I looked closer I would have seen it directly in my path. Be careful and observant out there.
