Last time I trailered my bike My kickstand WAS UP??
The bike should have been standing straight up with the front shock compressed(at least partway), and the rear should have been lashed to keep from kicking out on a bumpy corner?
How the HELL (can I say that
) did it fall over

Good news is you weren't on it when it fell over
. But I sure can relate to the bad luck thing.
Wife and I went on a road trip couple weeks ago. 50 miles from home she has a flat on the TP. $400 later we're back on the road.
Next day while her bike is parked at the hotel, a van backs into it and knocks it over. Over $2200 damage.
Just gotta laugh at life sometimes and roll with the punches. We went on to have an awesome trip together.

Yea I guess I just read in "on the kickstand" part, I would still like to know how it was (NOT)secured?

I'd like to see you say the same thing if it were you. I agree with you, that its only a bike, but come on, I'd be pissed if that happened to my bike. Im sure anyone would be. I worked to hard on my ride to just shrug my shoulders and say "it's just a bike".
