Default Looping an RKC

I just came back from the dealer and what I saw was absolutely discusting. There on the shop floor was what was left of a black RKC that had been looped on the interstste near here. The scoot was a lady riders, she had fitted it with some kinda training wheels and was loaded down with bags. Well, there is alot of construction going on here in Montgomery and apparently one of the wheels fell off of a shoulder and the "trike" started to swerve. She couldn't stop the oscillation and over on her nose she went, landing upside down and skidding on the bags. [:@]It was really sad looking at what once was a really nice RK. The amazing part of all this is the rider wasn't even scratched. Bruised probably, that's a rule, I think. Goes to show, you never know.
