Ok, I'll be the first to play this game.
Excessive "celebration". 1973. First and last time that happened. Haven't dropped a bike since (knock on wood). Also, haven't imbibed while riding since.

My wife and I were riding with four other couples, two of them for the first time. Making one of those 2mph right parking lot turns with my right foot off the floorboard, hit the front brake and over we went. Very embarrassing. I've been riding over forty years and know better......just had a momentary brain freeze and paid the price. Only damage was to my ego...lol

I was riding solo and a friend and his wife were next to me. We come to a stop sign and I put my foot down and it doesn't go all the way down, my darn pant leg was stuck on the brake so over I go. Not that that wasn't embarrassing enough......my friends wife hops off his scoot and actually picked mine up off me![8D]

RE: Embarressing moments
My brother was giving me riding lessions, and it was the second time I was on the bike. I was doing figure eights in a parking lot, when he motioned for me to come to him. I drove the fastest I'd ever gone at the time, a whopping 20mph and stopped the quickest at the time right next to him. Unfortunately I put my feet straight down, had no leverage and the bike bike just started leaning over. We both wrestled it, but no leverage and down it went - broke a rear tail light and shorted out the lighting system. That cut the lession real short. I learned to spread my legs to balance the bike after that
