    same here for the hill, but I still have a little left turn preference... especially left turn uphill feels smoothest...

    I think my habit of attacking off ramps from the interstate has got me much more practice going right and better going that way. Sometimes I even set out and go "ramping". There's one I can do a 1080. Feels pretty good to be on the power and hanging off for a loooooooong time.

    I do right turns better, I'm right handed (if that matters). I believe I'm better at right turns because there are more right turns on the road than left turns. In Virginia pretty much all the highway exits are right handed turns, a they are done at speed, so the more I do, the better I get.

    Just my 2 cents

    I am more comfortable in left turns because I usually delay the apex and typically can see farther around the corner. Now, steep downhill curves in either direction always get my attention . . . .
