I really want to do another group ride, but this time I don't want to be first. I want to see how other riders approach corners and such.

Only time dirty roads bother me is on the SS and the Paso, and that's because the riding position and clip ons. If I can ride Sumo style with the foot out it's all good, I don't mind sliding around a little if I can drag that foot a little bit. It's mostly mental.....
I think maybe what has helped most is sliding around on purpose, I've got a nice little oval track out on my property in Greensburg and it's slick as snot when wet and a hoot to ride around in circles on playing dirt tracker....
