Heather saved herself pretty good this fall. We were camping and the bikes were in some tall dewy grass, she let the clutch go alittle too quick and was still on the gas, just sliding back and forth, looked kinda like she was bouncing, wish I had that on video Did not bail but woke her up pretty quick

That was nothing but trick riding. I saw John Wayne do it with his horse a few times. LOL

Bet that guy had to have an underware change when that race was over.
