[QUOTE="firecracker22, post: 82937, member: 20316"] Well, everybody heard my Muddy Butt HS story. There’s some pretty intimidating uphills in that race. One particular one kicked my butt for the better part of half an hour. It was a narrow line up a very rooty hill with somewhat slippery wet dirt—not quite mud. There was a drier, less rooty line off to the left but you had to curve around a stump to get to it so I took the straighter line. I was actually doing ok, feathering the clutch in 2nd gear, and not even spinning much—when I accidentally, due to poor foot position on the pegs, hit neutral. :mad: So I clicked down into first and spun and fell. Well I spent forever on that stupid hill, getting the bike worked around to where I could reach the kickstarter and fire it up again, try to slip the clutch and either stall, loop out or just spin. I tried to walk it up, slipping the clutch—no luck. I FINALLY managed to get up there, lugging in 2nd and dogpaddling over the roots. I looked like a fool. [/QUOTE]
