#12
Bell bottoms can get ya, I was riding back in the late 70s, and had a new 76 Honda Super Sport 750 then. Jumped on to it one day at the "Lot" where we all gathered on the weekend evenings. Going to take a babe for a ride with a couple other guys/girls on their bikes, I swung my leg over the bike, set my right leg on the foot peg, kicked it up off the stand and swiftly tried to put my right leg down on the pavement, couldn't move it, too late, the bike was slowly tipping over to the right, and I just rode it down onto the "mini" crash bar.. (Case savers)
Seems my pant leg had slid over the kick starter, and I had NO CLUE! Until I tried to put my foot down....
The most unbelievable thing is , she still went for the ride with me! AFTER we all quit laughing enough,,,,

Bell bottoms, untied shoe laces, exotic heels,flip flops, etc,etc,etc. I know someone who's tennis shoe lace got caught in his brake pedal. He fell over at a red light. He told me he learned how to double knot his laces. Some learn---some burn.

Brake pedal next?
That leads to the next question. A lot of people removed their heel shifters over getting caught in it. I guess my friend should now remove that brake pedal? Not.
