What A Dick I Am

Photographer falls over!

 

Here's mine....out on my at the time Z750 a few years back and missed a turning, pulled into an up hill side road to turn round, put my right foot down onto gravel and went over, not too much damage but felt a complete dick, especially when a young woman drove down the side road and just sat in her car and waited until I'd picked the bike up and moved out of her way

 

The main thing no damage to either of you. I'm getting on a bit now so something like that would have its toll with me. You need one of those affirmation chants: level ground, neutral, side stand, ignition and dismount (using regulated pauses of 1 23 1)

 

The back wheel spun up and the front came down. The step stops the bike dead, compresses the forks and sends me into a reverse superman

 

Yeeha

 

All good fun and we all had a good laugh.
My youngest, with me minding parted company at the top òf a big rock and he did a beautiful backward roll into the stream. It was very elegant and even managed to end up face down in it. his face was a picture.
