This afternoon, after a training ride I went at it again and: The left side went fantastic. So I went for the right and sure enough, it went it sideways. I knew it, even before the blood started to flow that it was gonna take a while to close. Maybe 1.5cm long and I closed it up in 5-10 minutes. So not that bad.

So lesson learned. Hold off on the right side until I can get a little better with the left.

But the left came out about as good as with a MACH 3. So progress. Just not as quick as I thought. It's funny, we all know we should take our time but when it goes well, we all so often push our luck. I guess everyone has to slice themselves at least once to learn!
