I am entirely too cool to do a goober move like that. I always am stopped in 1st gear. I never let out the clutch too fast. I always give it just the right amount of gas.(I also have some beach property in Arizona that I am trying to sell)

I was out riding the Shovel last weekend. I pull up to a stop light next to a brand new sporty. The guy goes to turn at the light and stalls it, the bike goes slaming down as he droped it on his leg. I pull over and offer to help him pick it up, he said he has it, but I think he was to embarised to let me help.

I did yesterday for the first time (of course in traffic) on my home from work. I'm going to blame it on my ear plugs being in too far.[sm=happybounce.gif]

I did it a few times when learning how to ride a bike, but I haven't done it since then. Well........except for one incident. It wasn't at a stop light though. I was parking the bike and thought I put it into neutral but I didn't and the bike stalled when I let out the clutch.
