it is embarrassiing when you do it.



No, mine was embarrassing. When I stopped to refuel, I thought I put my sidestand down. As I saw the bike go over too far, I quickly grabbed the falling bike, slamming my face into the gas pump and sliding to the bottom. Bike was OK. Of course I looked around and saw no witnesses, so I filled up and went inside to pay. The clerk said, "I saw that", and chuckled when she asked if I was alright. Then another voice from an isle in the store, "Me too!". I left and another lady was walking in smiling, her shoulders
shaking and said, "Nice save!". Yes, I was a little embarrassed. My left cheek was a little redder than the rest of my face - for 3 days!

Ride Safe, Dennis Triumph, it's how I live and what I ride.
