I was taking the Harley Riders Edge course at the dealership. That same weekend there were vendors and me and some of the students were walking around on our break. One of the girls ask one of the vendors, "whats the best way to pick up a bike if you drop it?" Well...one of the guy salesman said " all you have to do is put your hand on your hip and say, gentlemen could y'all help me pick up my bike? and it will be done. We just kinda of laughed and walked on. So we get back to class and tell our instructor what we had learned. He too just laughed and shook his head. Now it time to go to the practice riding course and do some skills. I'm doing fine, but when I stop, I'm feeling for my kickstand with my foot and can't find it. I look down, MISTAKE, over I go. Thank goodness I had my chaps and boots on. My instructor strolls over to me and says" what where you saying this morning"? So me, looking at the men says" gentlemen...." They all were doing the back and forth shuffle, but too indecisive. Needless to say the instruction showed me how to pick up my bike and I still passed the course.
