[QUOTE="Michelle, post: 679863, member: 16598"] I've had one time I was stuck on a hill. I was lying with my body facing downhill, my boot wrapped up in one of the shrouds and petrol leaking. As usual I was riding by myself but the guys had some idea where I'd gone. I kept hearing them just around the corner & thought surely they'd turn up sooner or later, so I just lay there after a couple of half-hearted attempts to get back up. They found me, they laughed, I got unstuck ;) - lesson learnt - don't get the boot stuck on the radiator shroud lol It's pretty amazing how, if you stop to think for a minute, it's pretty easy to sort yourself out. If I'm concerned about the bike leaking gas, I just turn the gas off - but do remember to turn the gas back on (this is supposing you can reach the switch) ;) If you've got a camelbak (if not, get one), take a moment to have a drink, too. It refreshes you plus gives you a second to think. Bump starting bikes is easy (usually) & definitely the way to go at times. Now, go back Friday & whoop that corner's arse - and let us know how it goes :) Try not to dwell on it and don't go off there first thing - wait till you're warmed up (but not exhausted). Look into the corner (ignore the front of the bike), look where you want to go and as far ahead as you can, not where you crashed hehehe Good luck again & good on ya (thanks for sharing, too, it's always cool to read ride reports) [/QUOTE]
