Today, we got up to 62 degrees around here. Had to ride, & got over 160 (s)miles in. We figured we would stop by a friends house. Our friend has a real steep gravel drive, about 150 ft. long. As soon as we pulled into the drive, I noticed they had just gotten a new load of gravel. We managed to get about 3/4 the way up, but was spinning the rear tire pretty bad. Carol asked, "you want me to get off"? I said sure, it might help. Well it didn't help, but when it started going side ways, it just started going over. I wish we could've had someone with a video camera. Try to picture this. Carol's walking along by the left side as it starts to go over on the right. She's pulling on the left grab handle, I'm trying to hold it up with my right leg, & the loose gravel is moving under my foot. Well, over it went. She was more excited, than I was. No damage to Wing, or us. Just a bruised pride, on my part. After four Wings, & aprox. 40,000 miles, I finally did it. Watch that loose gravel, especially with a steep slope.
P.S. I usually tell you all everything I do, so I figured I just as well tell this story also. :wink:
