Ok i will start off saying that they didnt happen on the same day, but they did happen on the same trip.
The wife and i and 4 other couples rode to Gatlinburg, tn. for a nice 4 day weekend in a cabin. Thats where the bike went down. The cabin sat high on the mountain with a beautiful veiw. We were riding up a pretty good grade when i realized that we were at the cabin, as i started to turn to go up the drive, (an even steeper grade and a backwards left turn) the wife said let me off and i will walk up. I stopped crossways on the street to let her off, and by the time my foot on the low side got to the ground there was no saving it, FLOP on to the left side!!! Nothing and most important nobody hurt, just a little pride lost.
We got up the next morning and rode the dragon (in the rain) and i redeemed a little of my pride with my amazing riding ability!!!! lmao
